Network Interface | DHCP
The
BW1330
controller can act as a
DHCP
server
and/or as a
DHCP
relay
gateway
. The
DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
)
service is supported on the LAN interfaces [ixp0/vlan[n]]. This
service enables clients on the LAN to request configuration information, such as an IP address, from
a server. This service can be viewed in the following table:
Figure 100 – DHCP Configuration
By default the AC is configured to act as a
DHCP
server

Each LAN interface runs a different instance of the
DHCP
service. This service is configured by
defining an IP address range and WINS address for client workstations. Other settings, such as the
default gateway and DNS server address are configured automatically according to the interface
settings.
