The
VoloFone™ VF100 incorporates a DHCP server that assigns dynamic IP addresses to local clients
(computers connected to the VoloFone™ VF100). The IP addresses are allocated from the predefined
range of addresses defined on this page. The default address range is suitable for most local networks.
The DHCP server allocates the IP address for the term of the Lease Time defined on this page. The lease
is the amount of time that an IP address is valid for a specific device. If the lease expires and the device is
still connected, the lease is automatically renewed.
