DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol which allows individual devices on an IP network to get their own 
network configuration information (IP address, subnetmask, broadcast address, etc.) from a DHCP server. The overall 
purpose of the DHCP is to make it easier to administer a large network. The DHCP package includes the DHCP server and 
a DHCP relay agent. 

 

DHCP Server on LAN  

The DHCP Server is enabled by default. If you would like to disable it, uncheck the DHCP Server on LAN 
checkbox. If you change the check mark, click the Save button to activate the change. 

Click the Add Subnet button which will open the table for entering the Subnet IP Address and Mask. 

You can edit or delete entries by selecting the desired entries and clicking either the Edit button or Delete 
button listed under Options. 

 

 

The DHCP server can be made to assign a fixed IP address for a particular user by identifying the MAC address. This 
binding can be made permanent by configuring the same using this screen. The same IP address would not be used for any 
DHCP client with a different MAC address, even if there is no active DHCP connection with that IP address. 

 

Enter both a MAC address and an IP address.
