Configuring the DHCP server Here is an example of DHCP server configuration. This is used to automatically manage the assignment of IP addresses for the machines on the network. Each machine which is to connect to an Internet network must have a unique IP address. The DHCP server avoids having to manually assign an address for each machine, by dynamically assigning an available IP address. The DHCP server provides a reliable and simple TCP/IP network configuration, it prevents address conflicts and makes it possible to verify the use of the IP addresses by means of the centralised management of the address assignments. 1. In your profile’s parameterisation window, check the DHCP Server box and then click on Configuration.
2. Click the Add button.

After entering ppp 1 info all, two problems can occur: •
Either the router does not successfully synchronize, and you are then in the phase known as Establish. Your router has not successfully established a link with the ADSL line. Check your line's connection, and its activation.

6. How to carry out a trace? When you are unable to connect to the Internet, despite being sure of your connection identifiers and of the configuration of the router or computer, it may be useful to run traces using the Telnet session. Note: first make sure that your Telnet software has a sufficiently large buffer memory to save the data. It is generally best to increase it (check the Telnet software online help). •
Access the router's Telnet session, having made sure to disconnect the ADSL cable from the adapter beforehand. Then enter the following: ppp event 6 event show
•
Reconnect the ADSL cable.
•
Wait at least one minute, then enter event unshow to discontinue the trace.
•
Copy the entire trace into a text file.
Note: for any information about the BeWAN systems technical assistance service, consult the BeWAN systems web site (http://www.bewan.com). Important: if you have to run traces for any event other than the router's PPP session, replace the ppp event 6 line by nat event 5 (to trace the nat) or ip trace errors (to trace errors on the IP). Then proceed in the same manner as with ppp event 6.
