3.7.7.1 DHCP Function

DHCP (Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol) allows network ad-

ministrators centrally manage and automate the assignment of

IP (Internet Protocol) addresses on a computer network. When

using the TCP/IP protocol (Internet protocol), it is necessary for

a computer to have a unique IP address in order to communi-

from a central point. The purpose of DHCP is to provide the

automatic (dynamic) allocation of IP client congurations for a

specic time period (called a lease period) and to minimize the

work necessary to administer a large IP network. To manually

congure the IP address of the controller, move the cursor bar

to DHCP Function item, then press Enter key to show the DHCP

setting. Select the “Disabled” or “Enabled” option to enable or
