This Chapter covers the use of DHCP, using either an existing DHCP Server or the LevelOne WBR-1101TX's DHCP Server function.
If your LAN does not use DHCP, and you do not wish to use DHCP, you can ignore this chapter.
A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server allocates a valid IP address to a DHCP client (PC or device) upon request.
This is the default setting. The DHCP Server settings are on the LAN screen. On this screen, you can:
![]() |
You can assign Fixed IP Addresses to some devices while using DHCP, provided that the Fixed IP Addresses are NOT within the range used by the DHCP Server. |
You can only use one (1) DHCP Server. If you wish to use another DHCP Server, rather than the LevelOne WBR-1101TX's, the following procedure is required.
This is the default setting for TCP/IP under Windows 95/98/ME. See Chapter
4 - Client Configuration for the procedure to check these
settings.
