Settings - LAN & DHCP LAN IP Configuration Optional Configuration DHCP Configuration View DHCP List • IP Address - IP address for the Multi-WAN VPN Link Balancer, as seen from the Local LAN. Use the default value unless the address is already in use or your LAN is using a different IP Address range. • Subnet Mask -The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for small (class "C") networks. For other networks, use the Subnet Mask for the LAN segment to which the Multi-WAN VPN Link Balancer is attached. (The same value as the PCs on that LAN segment.) • DHCP Server Setup - If set to "Enable", the Multi-WAN VPN Link Balancer will assign IP Addresses to the PCs (DHCP clients) on your LAN when they start up. The default and recommended value is "Enable". (Windows systems, by default, act as DHCP clients. This setting in the Windows Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties is: Obtain an IP address automatically.) • LAN Any IP - By default this option is disabled. If you enable "LAN Any IP", then no matter what, the static IP address is held on the client (your PC). The client does not need to change the IP address, even though it has a different IP segment than the LAN segment. It can still access the Internet through NAT. • Lease Time - This is a finite period of time for a DHCP server to lease an IP address to a client. • DNS Server IP for Client - An IP address of the default DNS server for the client requesting DNS service. • Offered IP Range - The fields set the values used by the DHCP server when allocating IP addresses to DHCP clients. This range also determines the number of DHCP clients supported. This table shows the IP addresses which have been allocated by the DHCP Server. For each address which has been allocated, the following information is shown: • Free Entry - Indicates how many IP addresses the DHCP server can allocate to DHCP clients. • Name - The "hostname" of the PC. In some cases, this may not be known. • MAC Address - The physical address (network adapter address) of the PC. • IP Address - The IP address that is allocated to this PC. • Type - Indicates whether the IP address is to be dynamic or static. • Status - If Dynamic, the IP address was allocated by this DHCP Server. If Sniffed, the IP address was detected by examining the LAN rather than allocated by the DHCP Server. In this case, the Name is usually not known. • Time Left - The time expired since the IP address was leased. 12.

Settings – LAN & DHCP
LAN IP Configuration
•
IP Address
– IP address for the Multi-WAN VPN Link Balancer, as
seen from the Local LAN. Use the default value unless the address is
already in use or your LAN is using a different IP Address range.
•
Subnet Mask
–The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for small
(class "C") networks. For other networks, use the Subnet Mask for
the LAN segment to which the Multi-WAN VPN Link Balancer is
attached. (The same value as the PCs on that LAN segment.)
Optional
Configuration
•
DHCP Server Setup
– If set to “
Enable
”, the Multi-WAN VPN Link
Balancer will assign IP Addresses to the PCs (DHCP clients) on your
LAN when they start up. The default and recommended value is
"
Enable
". (Windows systems, by default, act as DHCP clients. This
setting in the Windows Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties is:
Obtain an IP address automatically
.)
•
LAN Any IP
– By default this option is disabled. If you enable “LAN
Any IP”, then no matter what, the static IP address is held on the
client (your PC). The client does not need to change the IP address,
even though it has a different IP segment than the LAN segment. It
can still access the Internet through NAT.
DHCP Configuration
•
Lease Time
– This is a finite period of time for a DHCP server to
lease an IP address to a client.
•
DNS Server IP for Client –
An IP address of the default DNS server
for the client requesting DNS service.
•
Offered IP Range
– The fields set the values used by the DHCP
server when allocating IP addresses to DHCP clients. This range
also determines the number of DHCP clients supported.
View DHCP List
This table shows the IP addresses which have been allocated by the
DHCP Server. For each address which has been allocated, the following
information is shown:
•
Free Entry
– Indicates how many IP addresses the DHCP server can
allocate to DHCP clients.
•
Name
– The "hostname" of the PC. In some cases, this may not be
known.
•
MAC Address
– The physical address (network adapter address) of
the PC.
•
IP Address
– The IP address that is allocated to this PC.
•
Type
– Indicates whether the IP address is to be dynamic or static.
•
Status
– If
Dynamic
, the IP address was allocated by this DHCP
Server. If
Sniffed
, the IP address was detected by examining the LAN
rather than allocated by the DHCP Server. In this case, the
Name
is
usually not known.
•
Time Left
– The time expired since the IP address was leased.
