5.5.1 DHCP
Overview
The DHCP web page offers three tabs to configure the SpeedTouch™ 's DHCP 
functionality:
:
To configure the general behaviour of the SpeedTouch™ 's DHCP server. 
:
To configure the SpeedTouch™ DHCP relay. 
:
To configure the SpeedTouch™ DHCP client.
DHCP Server
The DHCP server configuration is split up in three sections:
To configure the SpeedTouch™ DHCP server ‘master’ settings and behaviour. 
:
To overview current the SpeedTouch™ DHCP server's current leases, and/or 
add/delete static DHCP lease entries. 
:
To overview and add/delete DHCP address pools for the SpeedTouch™ DHCP 
server. 
As mentioned before, the SpeedTouch™ DHCP server - configuring local network 
hosts - can be run in conjunction with one or more SpeedTouch™ DHCP clients or 
SpeedTouch™ DHCP Relay agents, each created on behalf of a wide area connection. 
I.e. for WAN interfaces the SpeedTouch™ offers DHCP client, or DHCP relay support 
to configure MAC Encapsulated Routing (MER) or Routed IPoA interfaces 
independently.
