III. DHCP relay
The DR814Q offers the DHCP relay function to forward packets between a DHCP client
and a DHCP server that are in different network segments, thereby making DHCP
clients on multiple networks use the DHCP server across network segments.
To allow communications between DHCP clients with a DHCP server through the relay
function of the DR814Q, select the DHCP Relay option in the [DHCP] status section,
and then type the IP address of the DHCP server in the corresponding field.
Caution:
To make DHCP relay work properly, note to disable NAT and the firewall on the
corresponding service interface, that is, the service interface set for the DHCP server in
route configuration.
z
To disable NAT, click the [NAT] tab on the security setup page, and then set [NAT
Setting] as Disable for the corresponding interface.
z
To disable the firewall, click the [Firewall] tab on the security setup page, and then
set [Security Setting] as Disable.
