What DHCP Server Can Do
A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
Server
allocates a valid IP address to a DHCP
Client
(PC or
device) upon request.
•
The client request is made when the client device starts up (boots).
•
The DHCP Server provides the
Gateway
and
DNS
addresses to the client, as well as allocating an IP
Address..
•
The IP-2000VPN can act as a
DHCP server.
•
Windows 2000/XP and other non-Server versions of Windows will act as a DHCP
client
. This is the
default Windows setting for the TCP/IP network protocol. However, Windows uses the term
Obtain
an IP Address automatically
instead of "DHCP Client”.
•
You must NOT have two (2) or more DHCP Servers on the same LAN segment. (If your LAN does
not have other Routers, this means there must only be one (1) DHCP Server on your LAN).
Using the IP-2000VPN’s DHCP Server
This is the default setting. The DHCP Server settings are on the
LAN
screen. On this screen, you can:
•
Enable or Disable the IP-2000VPN's
DHCP Server
function.
•
Set the range of IP Addresses allocated to PCs by the DHCP Server function.
You can assign Fixed IP Addresses to some devices while using DHCP, provided that the Fixed
IP Addresses are NOT within the range used by the DHCP Server.
Using another DHCP Server
You can only use one (1) DHCP Server per LAN segment. If you wish to use another DHCP Server, rather
than the IP-2000VPN's, the following procedure is required.
•
Disable the DHCP Server feature in the IP-2000VPN. This setting is on the LAN screen.
•
Configure the DHCP Server to provide the IP-2000VPNs IP Address as the
Default Gateway.
To Configure your PCs to use DHCP
This is the default setting for TCP/IP under Windows 98/ME/2000/XP or else operating system.
See
Appendix A - Client Configuration
for the procedure to check these settings.
