Home > DHCP
Using the Configuration Menu
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host 
Control  Protocol.  The  DI-614+ 
has a built-in DHCP server. The 
DHCP Server will automatically 
assign  an  IP  address  to  the 
computers  on  the  LAN/private 
network.  Be  sure  to  set  your 
computers  to  be  DHCP  clients 
by setting their TCP/IP settings 
t o   “ O b t a i n   a n   I P   A d d r e s s 
Automatically.”  When  you  turn 
your  computers  on,  they  will 
automatically  load  the  proper 
TCP/IP  settings  provided  by 
the DI-614+. The DHCP Server 
will  automatically  allocate  an 
unused IP address from the IP 
address  pool  to  the  requesting 
computer. You must specify the 
starting  and  ending  address  of 
the IP address pool. 
Lease Time The length of time for the DHCP lease.
DHCP Clients ListLists the DHCP clients connected to the DI-614+. Click Refresh 
to update the list. The table will show the Host Name, IP Address,

Advanced > Virtual Server
Using the Configuration Menu
The  DI-614+  can  be  configured  as  a  virtual  server  so  that  remote  users  accessing 
Web or FTP services via the public IP address can be automatically redirected to local 
servers in the LAN (Local Area Network). 
The DI-614+ firewall feature filters out unrecognized packets to protect your LAN network 
so all computers networked with the DI-614+ are invisible to the outside world. If you 
wish, you can make some of the LAN computers accessible from the Internet by enabling 
Virtual Server. Depending on the requested service, the DI-614+ redirects the external 
service request to the appropriate server within the LAN network. 
Private/ Public PortsEnter in the private and public port or ports to be used.  A range 
of ports can be specified with a hyphen.  (e.g., 20-21)
Private IPThe IP address of the internal computer that will be using the 
virtual service.
Enable Select to activate the policy.
Name You can name the Virtual Server.
Schedule Select Always, or choose From and enter the time period during 
which the virtual service will be available.

Using the Configuration Menu
Advanced > Applications
Some  applications  require  multiple  connections,  such  as  Internet  gaming,  video 
conferencing,  and  Internet  telephony.  These  applications  have  difficulties  working 
through NAT (Network Address Translation). Special Applications makes some of these 
applications work with the DI-614+. If you need to run applications that require multiple 
connections,  specify  the  port  normally  associated  with  an  application  in  the Trigger 
field, then enter the public ports associated with the trigger port into the Incoming Ports 
field.
At the bottom of the screen, there are already defined special applications. To use them, 
select one from the drop down list and select an ID number you want to use. Then click 
the “Copy to” button and the router will fill in the appropriate information to the list. You 
will then need to enable the service. If the mechanism of Special Applications fails to 
make an application work, try using DMZ host instead.
    Note! Only one PC can use each Special Application tunnel.
Trigger Port This is the port used to trigger the application. It can be either 
a single port or a range of ports.
Public Ports This  is  the  port  number  on  the  WAN  side  that  will  be  used  to 
access the application. You may define a single port or a range 
of  ports. You  can  use  a  comma  to  add  multiple  ports  or  port 
ranges.
Enabled or 
Disabled 
Select to activate or deactivate the policy.
Name You can name the defined special applications.
