3. System Configuration 3.6.2 Configure the DHCP Server All Tripp Lite devices host a DHCP server. However, this setting is disabled by default. The DHCP server enables the automatic distribution of IP addresses to devices on the Management LAN that are running DHCP clients. To enable the DHCP server: • On the System: IP menu, select the Management LAN page and click the Disabled label in the DHCP Server field (or go directly to the System: DHCP Server menu). • Check Enable DHCP Server. • Enter the Gateway address that is to be issued to the DHCP clients. If this field is left blank, the console server's IP address will be used. • Enter the Primary DNS and Secondary DNS address to issue the DHCP clients. If this field is left blank, the console server's IP address is used. Leave this field blank for automatic DNS server assignment. • Optionally enter a Domain Name suffix to issue DHCP clients. • Enter the Default Lease time and Maximum Lease time (in seconds). The lease time is the time that a dynamically assigned IP address is valid before the client must request it again. • Click Apply. 27
