Fixed IP Addresses when the DHCP Server Is Enabled
FRITZ!Box
76
The IP address, the corresponding subnet mask and the acti-
vated DHCP server automatically yield the following values:
In every subnet of the FRITZ!Box, the addresses 20 through
200 in the fourth group of numerals of the IP address are
reserved for the DHCP server.
Assigning the IP addresses via the DHCP server ensures
that all of the computers connected with the FRITZ!Box are
located in a single subnet.
The computers can receive their IP addresses from the
DHCP server only if the setting “Obtain an IP address auto-
matically” is enabled in the their IP settings. For more infor-
mation, see the section “IP Settings” from page 87.
Fixed IP Addresses when the DHCP Server Is Enabled
If you would like to give fixed IP addresses to individual com-
puters connected with the FRITZ!Box, despite the fact that the
DHCP server is enabled, then you must disable the option
“Obtain an IP address automatically” in this computer’s net-
work settings and enter the fixed IP address manually.
Which IP Addresses Can You Assign to the Computers?
The IP addresses must be from the same subnet as
FRITZ!Box.
The IP addresses may not come from the address pool
of the DHCP server.
If the factory settings are not changed, that means the fol-
lowing IP addresses are available:
Each IP address can be assigned only once.
