Table 3-3 DHCP Server: Setup
LABEL DESCRIPTION
Set Up DHCP Server
Enable/Disable DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132)
allows individual clients (workstations) to obtain TCP/IP configuration at
startup from a server. Disable this field to stop the RADIUS acting as a
DHCP server. When configured as a server, the RADIUS provides TCP/IP
configuration for the clients. If not, DHCP service is disabled and you must
have another DHCP server on your LAN, or else the client computer must
be manually configured. When set as a server, fill in the following four
fields.
DHCP Pool Start IP
Address
This field specifies the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP address
pool. The default is 192.168.1.100.
DHCP Pool Size This field specifies the size, or count, of the IP address pool. The default is
10.
Lease Time Type a time between 1 and 65535 minutes.
Domain This field identifies your Vantage RADIUS DHCP server on the network
and informs administrators which DHCP server you are using.
The following fields are taken from the IP screen and are not configurable. See Figure 3-1 for details on
how to configure these fields.
Network Address
This field displays the IP Address field of the IP screen (see Figure 3-1)
Netmask The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address.
Unless you are implementing subnetting, use the default subnet mask
255.255.255.0.
Gateway This field displays the IP address of the gateway used to connect your
RADIUS to the Internet.
Primary DNS This displays the IP Address of the DNS Server used for resolving host
names.
Secondary DNS This is the backup DNS Server.
