DHCP Settings for the LAN Interface
The DHCP Settings page provides the option of enabling a DHCP server and controlling the Quadro user’s LAN settings. Therefore, Quadro LAN
users will automatically be provided with the following settings using the configured parameters:
•
IP addresses
•
NTP (corresponds to the Quadro’s IP address)
•
WINS server
•
Nameserver (corresponds to the Quadro’s IP address)
•
Domain name
The DHCP Settings page offers the following input options:
Enable DHCP Server checkbox activates the DHCP server
on Quadro. With this checkbox enabled, Quadro will be able
to assign dynamic IP addresses to the devices in its LAN.
Give leases only to hosts listed in the static MAC
address binding table checkbox enables the DHCP
services only for the devices listed in the table below. With
this checkbox selected, no DHCP services will be provided
to the other devices.
IP Address Range defines a range of IP addresses that will
be assigned to the Quadro LAN users. The IP range must be
at least 6, otherwise the error message “Address Range too
small” will prevent it from being saved. The error message
“Address Range too large” will appear if the IP range is
greater than 254.
WINS Server defines a WINS server IP address for the
Quadro LAN users.

The Authoritative checkbox is used to enable/disable authoritative mode on the Quadro DHCP server. Disabling the checkbox is
recommended if several DHCP servers are used on the network and the Quadro should provide network parameters to IP phones only.
•
The Ping Check checkbox enables checking the availability of an IP address on the network before providing it to a client. If this checkbox is
selected, the Quadro will first ping an IP address retrieved from the IP pool and wait for a reply. If no a reply is received within a timeout
specified in the Ping timeout text field (by default 1 sec), the retrieved IP address will be provided to the client. If otherwise, a new IP address
will be retrieved from the IP pool and the procedure will be repeated. If this checkbox is not selected, the Quadro will provide an IP address
immediately when requested.
