DHCP/BOOTP Configuration

DHCP
Select "Enable" will enable Router to assign IP addresses for each host machine in your LAN automatically. Otherwise "Disable"
DNS Proxy
When the Router acts as a DNS Proxy(Enable), it stores in its memory a set of available DNS table which speed up frequently occuring DNS queries.
DNS Server IP Address
You need to enter DNS Server IP address which is supplied by your ISP, so that your host machines in LAN could issue DNS request and get reply normally.
DHCP Start IP/ IP Count
These two fields allow you to define the range of IP addresses which you prefer to be automatically assigned to your workstation on a dynamic basis.(Note: The first three dotted-decimal of DHCP Start IP are the same as LAN local IP address)
Gateway IP Address
It allows you to define the routing path for another path of Internet access or other purpose. If you are not sure about this, just set it to the same value as your LAN Local IP address.

 

Fixed IP Address Assignment Table
If you like Router to assign static(fixed) IP addresses to particular workstations each time they power on, you need to fill in the IP No., which ranges from 0 to 255(Note: The first three dotted-decimal of IP address are the same as LAN local IP address), and the Physical Address that is associated with your Network Card.
