The DHCP address pool defines the range of the IP address that can be assigned to stations in the network. A Dynamic Pool allows wireless
stations to receive an available IP with lease time control. Once a user is finished, click the Save button to let the changes take effect.
IP Assigned From:
Specify the Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) server address for the wireless network. WINS is a system that
determines the IP address of a network computer that has a dynamically assigned IP address.
Enter the IP address of the gateway on the network.
Enter the IP address of the Domain Name System (DNS) server. The DNS server translates domain names such as
www.dlink.com into IP addresses.
