DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The DHCP section is where you configure the
built-in DHCP Server to assign IP addresses to the computers and other devices on your local area
network (LAN).
Enable DHCP Server
Once your Wireless router is properly configured and this option is enabled, the DHCP Server
will manage the IP addresses and other network configuration information for computers and
other devices connected to your Local Area Network. There is no need for you to do this
yourself.
The computers (and other devices) connected to your LAN also need to have their TCP/IP
configuration set to "DHCP" or "Obtain an IP address automatically".
When you set
Enable DHCP Server
, the following options are displayed.
