4.4 DHCP, DNS settings
The DHCP service allows the automatic IP address providing for the connecting devices
in the current IP segment by the router. The DHCP settings can be found at the
Network
/
Interfaces
menu (according to the required interface).
To enable DHCP service
, uncheck “
Ignore interface
”. For this, the fields required for
DHCP configuration are displayed, with default values.
The
Start
field means what the starting address should be within the subnet used by
the router (in our case 192.168.x…).
Use the
Limit
field to limit how many IP addresses are assigned. That is, the router on
subnet 192.168.x will assign IP addresses in the address range between
Start
and
Start +
Limit
to the devices that want to connect.
Additional settings on the
Advanced Settings
tab, if required (Dynamic DHCP, Subnet
Mask (IPv4-Netmask)). Save the settings with the
Save & Apply
button.
