1.1. DHCP Server
Dynamic DNS can let you connect with one or more DDNS services to update your current dynamic IP
address. DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Control Protocol. MZK-W04NU Wireless Router has a built-
in DHCP server which can automatically assign an IP address to those computers/devices on the
LAN/private network. If you enable DHCP server, the client host will obtain an IP address automatically.
Whenever you turn on the computer, it will automatically load the proper TCP/IP settings from MZK-
W04NU. The DHCP server will allocate an unused IP address from the IP address pool to the requesting
computer, but you must specify the beginning and ending address of the IP address pool.
