DHCP Server Settings
DHCP  stands  for  Dynamic  Host  Control  Protocol.  The  DIR-635  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 to “Obtain an IP Address Automatically.” When you turn your computers 
on, they will automatically load the proper TCP/IP settings provided by the DIR-635. 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.

Section 3 - Configuration
The DIR-635 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 DIR-635 firewall feature filters out unrecognized packets to protect your LAN network so all computers networked 
with the DIR-635 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 DIR-635 redirects the external 
service request to the appropriate server within the LAN network. 
The  DIR-635  is  also  capable  of  port-redirection  meaning  incoming  traffic  to  a  particular  port  may  be  redirected  to  a 
different port on the server computer.
Each  virtual  service  that  is  created  will  be  listed  at  the  bottom  of  the  screen  in  the  Virtual  Servers  List.  There  are  
pre-defined virtual services already in the table. You may use them by enabling them and assigning the server IP to 
use that particular virtual service.
