Configuration and

Management

•

  Lease Time  – This specifies the number of hours a client can lease

an IP address, from the dynamically allocated IP pool.  The

maximum value is 65535 and a value of 0 means the lease is

permanent.

•

  DNS IP – This specifies the Domain Name System server, used by

the DHCP clients using leased IP addresses, to translate hostnames

into IP addresses or vice-versa.

•

  WINS IP – This specifies the IP address of the Windows Internet

Naming Service server.  This server has software that resolves

NetBIOS names to IP addresses.

•

  Domain Name  – This is the common suffix, shared by networked

hosts, used to represent a common network domain.

•

  State – This enables or disables the dynamic IP Pool function.

Static IP Pool

The Static IP Pool configuration functions in much the same way as the

Dynamic IP Pool configuration. The only difference is that a particular

IP address can be assigned to a particular host. This is used for hosts

such as servers that need to have static IP addresses to function

properly or to make them accessible to remote users. The host is

identified by the MAC address of its NIC, which must be entered on

this screen.
