Chapter 7 DHCP Server

The following table describes the labels in this screen.

Table 37   General

Enable DHCP Server

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 Prestige acting 

as a DHCP server. When configured as a server, the Prestige 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.

IP Pool Starting 

Address

This field specifies the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool.

Pool Size

This field specifies the size, or count of the IP address pool.

DNS Servers Assigned by DHCP Server 
The Prestige passes a DNS (Domain Name System) server IP address (in the order you specify here) 

to the DHCP clients. The Prestige only passes this information to the LAN DHCP clients when you 

select the Enable DHCP Server check box. When you clear the Enable DHCP Server check box, 

DHCP service is disabled and you must have another DHCP sever on your LAN, or else the computers 

must have their DNS server addresses manually configured.

First DNS Server
Second DNS Server

Enter the IP address(es) of the DNS server(s). If you do not configure a DNS 

server, you must know the IP address of a computer in order to access it.

Apply

Click Apply to save your changes back to the Prestige.

Reset

Click Reset to begin configuring this screen afresh.

This table allows you to assign IP addresses on the LAN to specific individual computers 
based on their MAC addresses. 

Every Ethernet device has a unique MAC (Media Access Control) address. The MAC address 
is assigned at the factory and consists of six pairs of hexadecimal characters, for example, 00-
A0-C5-00-00-02.

To change your Prestige’s Static DHCP settings, click the DHCP Server link under Network 
and the Static DHCP tab. The following screen displays.
