DHCP Client Configuration
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows DHCP Clients to automatically obtain their IP Address at start-
up. This simplifies network administration, as there is no need to manually configure each device with a separate IP
Address. The XYR301-E is able to act as a DHCP client. To set the XYR301-E to acquire its IP address from a DHCP
Server, check the box “Obtain IP Address Automatically” on the Network Configuration page.
When configured as a DHCP Client the “Device Name” on the Module Information page will be the module identifier
(as the IP address will be unknown) and so should be given a unique name.

DHCP Server Configuration
The XYR301-E is able to act as a DHCP server, supplying IP addresses automatically to other DHCP Client devices.
Note that the XYR301-E units need to act in conjunction with their connected devices. If a connected device is a
DHCP server, the local and remote XYR301-E units can be configured as DHCP Clients and receive IP addresses from
the server device. Similarly, if an XYR is configured as a DHCP server, it can provide IP addresses to DHCP Clients,
both XYR301-E units as well as other connected devices. Configuration items for the DHCP Server are listed below.
