4.4 Automatic address administration with DHCP
In LANCOM Wire-
less L-11 this funk-
tion is included
when using the DSL
firmware
In order to operate smoothly in a TCP/IP network, all the devices in a local
network must have unique IP addresses.
They also need the addresses of DNS server and NBNS server as well as that
of a default gateway through which the data packets are to be routed from
addresses that are not available locally.
In a smaller network, it is still conceivable that these addresses could be
entered manually in all the computers in the network. In a larger network with
many workstation computers, however, this would simply be too great.
In such situations, the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is the
ideal solution. Using this protocol, a DHCP server in a TCP/IP-based LAN can
dynamically assign the necessary addresses to the individual stations.
4.4.1 The DHCP server
As a DHCP server, the LANCOM Wireless can administer the IP addresses in
its TCP/IP network. In doing so, it passes the following parameters to the
workstation computers:
IP address
Netmask
Broadcast address
DNS server
NBNS
Default gateway
Period of validity for the parameters assigned
The DHCP server takes the IP addresses either from a freely defined address
pool or determines the addresses automatically from its own IP address (or
intranet address).
In DHCP mode, a completely unconfigured device can even automatically
assign IP addresses to itself and the computers in the network.
In the simplest case, all that is required is to connect the new device to a net-
work without other DHCP servers and switch it on. The DHCP server then
interacts with LANconfig using a wizard and handles all of the address
assignments in the local network itself.
