4.5.3 LAN settings
These are the settings of the LAN (LocalArea Network) interface for the router. The router's
local network (LAN) settings are configured based on the IP Address and Subnet Mask
assigned in this section. The IP address is also used to access this web-based
management interface. It is recommended that you use the default settings if you do not
have an existing network.
Setting the LAN parameters, include IPAddress, Subnet Mask, DHCP, etc.
IP Address: The IP address of your router’s LAN port. Default: 192.168.8.1.
Subnet Mask: Subnet Mask of your LAN (default: 255.255.255.0).
All devices on the network must have the same subnet mask to communicate on the
network.

DHCP Type: DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The DHCP section is
where you configure the built-in DHCP Server to assign IP addresses to the computers and
other devices on your local area network (LAN). When you select Server item from this
pull-down list to enable this function, the following parameters will be displayed. You must
enter the IP address, Subnet Mask, Primary DNS Server and/or Secondary DNS Server.
Start IP Address: Specify the DHCP Client IP address that will start.
End IP Address: Specify the DHCP Client IP address that will end.
Note: The number of the “End IP” must be greater than “Start IP”, and cannot be the same
as the router’s IP address.
DHCP Lease Time: Designate the amount of the time for the device to recycle and give out
the IP addresses to the devices in your network (default: 86400).
Statically Assigned: You can statically assign the client MAC and IP address. Up to three
IPs and MACs can be assigned.

4.5.4 DHCP clients
In this section, you can see clearly which devices are currently leasing IP
addresses that you had defined for the DHCP Server‘s allocation of addresses to
computers and devices on your Local Area Network.
List the Clients which gain IP address from DHCP.
Host Name: A name for each computer or device that is given an IP address by the DHCP
Server. This may help you keep track of which computers are assigned this way.
MAC Address: A MAC address is usually located on a sticker at the bottom of a network
device. The MAC address is comprised of twelve digits. Each pair of hexadecimal digits are
usually separated by dashes or colons such as 00-0D-88-11-22-33 or 00:0D:88:11:22:33.
IP Address: The address which is obtained from the DHCP Server.
Expires in: The remaining time of the IP address’s lease. A specific LAN device no longer
needs the leased IP address when the time ends up, and this device will also free the IP
address it had leased.
