DHCP server
Press Next to set the next page :
15
XtendLan XL-EFM404 G.SHDSL .bis EFM Modem User Manual V0.01
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a communication protocol that lets network
administrators to manage centrally and automate the assignment of Internet Protocol (IP)
addresses in an organization's network. Using the Internet Protocol, each machine that can
connect to the Internet needs a unique IP address. When an organization sets up its
computer users with a connection to the Internet, an IP address must be assigned to each
machine.
Without DHCP, the IP address must be entered manually at each computer. If computers
move to another location in another part of the network, a new IP address must be entered.
DHCP lets a network administrator to supervise and distribute IP addresses from a central
point and automatically sends a new IP address when a computer is plugged into a different
place in the network.
The embedded DHCP server assigns network configuration information at most 253 users
accessing the Internet in the same time.
16
XtendLan XL-EFM404 G.SHDSL .bis EFM Modem User Manual V0.01
For example: If the LAN IP address is 192.168.0.1, the IP range of LAN is 192.168.0.2 to
192.168.0.254. The DHCP server assigns the IP form Start IP Address to End IP Address. The
legal IP address range is form 0 to 255, but 0 are reserved as network name and 255 are
reserved for broadcast. It implies the legal IP address range is from 1 to 254. That means you
cannot assign an IP greater than 254 or less than 1.
Lease time 72 hours indicates that the DHCP server will reassign IP information in every 72
hours.
The default value is 72 hours .You can set up from 1 to 720 hours according to your
application.
Moreover, you may assign a fixed IP address to some device while using DHCP, you have to
put this device’s MAC address in the Table of Fixed DHCP Host Entries.
