Setup the Prestige as a DHCP Relay
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. In addition to the DHCP server feature, the P661 supports the DHCP relay function. When it is configured as DHCP server, it assigns the IP addresses to the LAN clients. When it is configured as DHCP relay, it is reponsable for forwarding the requests and responses negotiating between the DHCP clients and the server. See figure 1.
