LAN Port By default, the gateway functions as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server to the hosts present on the LAN network. With DHCP, PCs and other LAN devices can be assigned IP addresses and addresses for DNS servers, Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) servers, and the default gateway. The gateway's IP address serves as the gateway address for LAN clients, with the DHCP server enabled. The PCs in the LAN are assigned IP addresses from a pool of addresses if the DHCP server is configured. For most applications, the default DHCP and TCP/IP settings are satisfactory. If you want another PC on your network to be the DHCP server or if you are manually configuring the network settings of all of your PCs, set the DHCP mode to "none." DHCP relay can forward DHCP packets to get the DHCP lease information from another DHCP server on the network. Along with a DNS server, you can also use a Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) server. A WINS server is the equivalent of a DNS server but uses the NetBIOS protocol to resolve hostnames. The gateway includes the WINS server IP address in the DHCP configuration when acknowledging a DHCP request from a DHCP client. You can configure the LAN port in the Port configuration section. Click Edit to open the respective port configuration page. Note: To configure the port, you must disable the "Use profile configuration" field. Port 1 and Port 4 are WAN and LAN ports, respectively. You can configure WAN, LAN, or DMZ ports on Port 2 and Port 3. 50
