TW-H6W1IR ISDN Remote Router
Configuration and Management 61
DHCP Configuration
The TW-H6W1IR Router implements the Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP), which allows the entire IP network to be centrally
managed by the router. It does this by assigning IP addresses and
configuration parameters to hosts as they are powered on and come
onto the network. This can be a great help for network administration
since many administrative tasks such as keeping track of each
computer’s IP address are handled by the router. The TW-H6W1IR
can implement DHCP in one of the two ways shown below:
DHCP Server Configuration
When acting as a DHCP server, the TW-H6W1IR will manage many
of the IP network parameters. The TW-H6W1IR will never assign a
broadcast or network IP addresses to hosts, even if such an address is
included in the specified range.
