Server

Enable or Disable DHCP for LAN.

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 
2132) allows individual clients (computers) to obtain TCP/IP 
configuration at startup from a server. Leave the Enable DHCP 
Server check box selected unless your ISP instructs you to do 
otherwise. Clear it to disable the NBG-417N acting as a DHCP 
server. When configured as a server, the NBG-417N provides TCP/IP 
configuration for the clients. If not, DHCP service is disabled and 
you must have another DHCP server on your LAN, or else the 
computers must be manually configured. When set as a server, fill in 
the following four fields.
