NOTICE: You should only change the IP address or IP subnet mask if you are installing the Wireless Broadband Router on an existing wired network and the DHCP server function for your Wireless Broadband Router is disabled in the Advanced Settings. For more information, contact your network administrator. Click the SUBMIT button to store the changes. Back to Top DHCP Server Settings Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), defines a way to automatically assign IP addresses to computers on a network. IP addresses are managed by a DHCP server. If a Windows computer is configured to obtain an IP address automatically, it automatically gets an address from the DHCP server. Enable DHCP Server Functions By default, the Wireless Broadband Router is set to function as a DHCP server. If you are installing the unit on an existing network that already has a DHCP server or simply do not want the Wireless Broadband Router to function as the network's DHCP server, uncheck the box Enable DHCP Server Functions to disable the DHCP server function. IP Address Pool Range The IP Address Pool Range section provides a means of controlling a low and high value for the IP addresses on a network. Use the indicated fields to define the range of IP addresses you would like the Wireless Broadband Router to provide to DHCP clients. The valid range of numbers you should enter is between 1 and 254. The lease time is the amount of time a user will be allowed to use the IP address assigned by the DHCP server. You may specify the lease time that DHCP server offers for the client to use the IP address. This setting is especially useful in campus or other environments where users change frequently. IP Address Reservation Specific IP addresses may also be reserved for particular devices in a network. The IP Address Reservation fields allows you to reserve up to four IP addresses for a specific system. The Computer MAC field is the MAC address of your network card on the client computer interfacing the same network as the router. Use the input boxes under IP Address to indicate the IP address for those devices that should use a manually-defined IP address. Click the SUBMIT button to store the changes. Back to Top Time Zone Use the Time Zone page to select your local time zone from the pull-down list. The Time Zone Settings affects the Intruder Detection Log. This setting offsets the time stamp on IP packets that are in Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). IP packets may not
