If you want to use several Gigaset SE365 WLAN in the same network, make sure you
assign different IP addresses to each of them. Use an address block that is within the
selected subnet but not in the address block of the addresses automatically assigned
by the DHCP server in your network. See also "Example of LAN settings with two
repeaters" on page 30.
You can decide whether to use the Gigaset SE365 WLAN's integrated DHCP server.
Depending on the configuration of your network, it may be better to deactivate the
Gigaset SE365 WLAN's integrated DHCP server.
ì
To do this, select
Off
for the
DHCP Server
.
However, this is only necessary, if
– another DHCP server is already being used in your network,
– you are using more than one Gigaset SE365 WLAN in the same network. In this
case, please switch off the DHCP server on all other repeaters.
Make sure you
change the IP addresses of the other Gigaset SE365 WLAN (follow the example
on page 30),
– the IP addresses in your network are static, i.e. you have manually assigned a
static IP address to every network component.
If your network does not have a DHCP server yet, then you can use the DHCP server inte-
grated in your Gigaset SE365 WLAN to assign the IP addresses of the connected devices
automatically.
ì
In this case, select
On
for the
DHCP Server
.
If you have activated the DHCP server integrated in your Gigaset SE365 WLAN, you
should also check the following settings and make any changes that are necessary.
ì
In the
Lease time
field, specify how long the PCs should retain their assigned
IP addresses before they are changed.
ì
The
First issued IP address
and
Last issued IP address
values define the range of
IP addresses that your Gigaset SE365 WLAN should use to automatically assign IP
addresses to PCs.
Please note:
u
If you use your Gigaset SE365 WLAN in Repeater operating mode and opt for auto-
matic address assignment for the connected PCs, make sure that the DHCP server
of your access point has been activated. The devices connected via the Gigaset
SE365 WLAN will then use it automatically.
u
If you use your Gigaset SE365 WLAN in Access point operating mode, it also
depends on your existing network whether or not you should use the integrated
DHCP server of the Gigaset SE365 WLAN. If there is already a DHCP server in your
network, this one should be used.
