3. Click Apply.
Note
You must configure an Ethernet interface and enter the subnet address and the subnet
mask length on which the interface is listening in the Subnet text box (see steps 6 and 7)
before you enable the DHCP Server Process. For more information on how to configure
Ethernet interfaces see “Ethernet Interfaces” on page 34.
4. Click the Add a new Subnet Entry link.
5. Enter the subnet address of the Ethernet interface you have configured for the DHCP server
process in the Subnet text box.
6. Enter the mask length for the subnet in the Mask Length text box.
7. (Optional) Enter the lease length, in seconds, for client IP addresses in the Default Lease text
box. This would be applied only if clients do not request a specific lease time. If you do not
enter a value, the configuration will default to 43,200 seconds.
8. (Optional) Enter the maximum lease length, in seconds, for client IP addresses in the
Maximum Lease text box. This would be the longest lease the server would allow. If you do
not enter a value, the configuration will default to 86,400 seconds.
9. Enter the range of IP addresses the server will assign to clients in the Start and End text
boxes respectively in the New Pool field.
Note
Make sure that Enabled is selected in the State field. This is the default selection.

If you are configuring a large number of VLANs, you might experience a delay in having
IP addresses assigned to VLAN interfaces.
