Current Pool 
Summary
Click this to display a summary table for the IP address pool. See 
 for more details.
The ZyXEL Device is pre-configured with a pool of IP addresses for the DHCP 
clients (DHCP Pool). See the product specifications in the appendices. Do not 
assign static IP addresses from the DHCP pool to your LAN computers.
IP Pool Count
This field specifies the size, or count of the IP address pool.
Lease Time
This is the period of time DHCP-assigned addresses is used. 
DHCP automatically assigns IP addresses to clients when they log in.  DHCP 
centralizes IP address management on central computers that run the DHCP 
server program.  DHCP leases addresses, for a period of time, which means that 
past addresses are “recycled” and made available for future reassignment to 
other systems.
