DHCP Configuration

DHCP is configured via Gatekeeper. The service is installed by default. DHCP is considerably more complex in structure than the other services. For this reason we have provided a fully automatic mode of operation. Qbik do not recommend changing from Fully Auto mode unless you understand DHCP and the effects of your changes.

Modes:

Fully automatic does everything for you. All settings are standard and will work in nearly all circumstances. DNS is set to the WinGate machine itself. There are no Reservations. Scopes are created as required based on the IP of the WinGate machine or DHCP relay agent. Fully Automatic mode copes with DHCP Relay agents and multiple subnets. The default gateway is configured as the WinGate machine (if WinGate is running on a multihomed host) or the IP address of a relay agent.

Semi automatic allows configuration of what WinGate will automatically do

Manual Only use this mode if you understand DHCP and its options. Manual is useful for complex networks where there are several different machines with different needs / uses.

Note: There must be a Binding for all interfaces that you wish to use DHCP on. Listed in the bindings tab should be all your LAN cards.
