On the IAD, it can be one of the following:Ethernet port, PPP connection, ATM PVC, or FR DCLI.IP Filtering can selectively pass or discard IP packets based on one or more ofthe following properties:• Protocol (IP, ICMP, TCP, and UDP)• Protocol flags (for TCP and ICMP only)• Source and/or Destination IP address• Source and/or Destination port numberFor more information on defining and using a filter rule set, see IP FilteringApplication note on page C-252.For more information, see Configure IP Filtering on page 4-91.DHCP Server ConfigurationThis section describes the tasks required to configure the Dynamic HostConfiguration Protocol (DHCP) server on the LAN connection.DHCP allows for dynamic allocation of network addresses and configurationsto newly attached hosts. DHCP reduces the amount of work required toadminister a large network.Basic DHCP Server Setup TasksWhen DHCP is enabled, it dynamically assigns an IP address to each deviceassigned to the DHCP server on the IAD. You must identify the EthernetInterface to correctly implement DHCP Server on your IAD.You must complete at least these tasks to configure the DHCP server:• Enable DHCP (default is disabled) (page 4-129)• Configure the DHCP server parameters (page 4-130)• Configure the DHCP address range pool (page 4-130)DHCP Server Configuration MenuThe DHCP Server commands are all displayed on the DHCP ServerConfiguration menu, which is displayed by typing “D” on the Main menu.Remember always to reset the IAD when you have finished making DHCPServer configuration changes.
