3. DHCP Server
The DHCP server function makes setting up a network very easy
by assigning IP addresses to each computer on the network
automatically . The default setting is “On” . The DHCP server can
be turned OFF if necessary; however, in order to do so you must
manually set a static IP address for each computer on your network .
To turn off the DHCP server, select “Off” and click “Apply Changes” .
4. IP Pool
The range of IP addresses set aside for dynamic assignment
to the computers on your network . The default is 2–100 (99
computers) . If you want to change this number, you can do so
by entering a new starting and ending IP address and clicking on
“Apply Changes” . The DHCP server can assign 100 IP addresses
automatically . This means that you cannot specify an IP address
pool larger than 100 computers . For example, starting at 50
means you have to end at 150 or lower so as not to exceed the
100-client limit . The starting IP address must be lower in number
than the ending IP address .
5. Lease Time
The length of time the DHCP server will reserve the IP address
for each computer . We recommend that you leave the lease
time set to “Forever” . The default setting is “Forever”, meaning
that any time a computer is assigned an IP address by the
DHCP server, the IP address will not change for that particular
computer . Setting lease times for shorter intervals such as one
day or one hour frees IP addresses after the specified period of
time . This also means that a particular computer’s IP address
may change over time . If you have set any of the other advanced
features of the N1 Vision such as DMZ or client IP filters, these
are dependent on the IP address . For this reason, you will not
want the IP address to change .
6. Local Domain Name
The default setting is “Belkin” . You can set a local domain name
(network name) for your network . There is no need to change
this setting unless you have a specific advanced need to do so .
You can name the network anything you want such as
“MY NETWORK” .
