3. DHCP Server
The DHCP server function makes setting up a network very easy
by assigning IP addresses to each computer on the network
automatically. The default setting is "On". The DHCP server
can be turned OFF if necessary; however, in order to do so you
must manually set a static IP address for each computer on your
network. To turn off the DHCP server, select "Off" and click
"Apply Changes".
4. IP Pool
The range of IP addresses set aside for dynamic assignment to the
computers on your network. The default is 2–100 (99 computers). If
you want to change this number, you can do so by entering a new
starting and ending IP address and clicking on "Apply Changes".
The DHCP server can assign 100 IP addresses automatically. This
means that you cannot specify an IP address pool larger than 100
computers. For example, starting at 50 means you have to end at
150 or lower so as not to exceed the 100-client limit. The starting
IP address must be lower in number than the ending IP address.
5. Lease Time
The length of time the DHCP server will reserve the IP address
for each computer. We recommend that you leave the lease
time set to "Forever". The default setting is "Forever", meaning
that any time a computer is assigned an IP address by the
DHCP server, the IP address will not change for that particular
computer. Setting lease times for shorter intervals such as one
day or one hour frees IP addresses after the specified period of
time. This also means that a particular computer's IP address
may change over time. If you have set any of the other advanced
features of the Router such as DMZ or client IP filters, these are
dependent on the IP address. For this reason, you will not want
the IP address to change.
6. Local Domain Name
The default setting is "Belkin". You can set a local domain name
(network name) for your network. There is no need to change this
setting unless you have a specific advanced need to do so. You can
name the network anything you want such as "MY NETWORK".
