9.1 O ve rvie w
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows individual clients to obtain
TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a server. You can configure the LTE3301’s LAN as a DHCP server or
disable it. When configured as a server, the LTE3301 provides the TCP/IP configuration for the clients. If
DHCP service is disabled, you must have another DHCP server on your LAN, or else the computer must
be manually configured.

on their MAC Addresses (
Section 9.3 on page 84

configuration leaves 31 IP addresses (excluding the LTE3301 itself) in the lower range (192.168.1.2 to
192.168.1.32) for other server computers, for instance, servers for mail, FTP, TFTP, web, etc., that you may
have.
