Go to either of the following user interfaces:
Use this procedure to configure a Client Mode Profile.
-
Enter a Client Mode
Profile Name.
-
Enter a Description (optional).
-
The Enable Local Web
Page option is enabled by default.
The client mode AP activates a
local SSID portal web page, which includes choices to select and connect the
client mode AP WAN-side radio to a WAN Wi-Fi network. Clear this check box to
configure other options for this profile.
-
Choose one of the following DHCP
server options:
- In the DHCP Server
Scope field, enter the first IP address of the DHCP server
range. The first IP address in this range is the IP address used to display
the client mode SSID portal web page. Make a note of this first IP address
for later reference.
- In the DHCP Server
Scope field, enter a single IP address to reserve a specific
client (MAC address) to an IP. A DHCP reservation is a permanent IP address
assignment. It is a specific IP address within a DHCP scope that is
permanently reserved for a specific DHCP client. DHCP reservations on the AP
support security on the local side of the Network Address Translation (NAT)
and ensure that the client IP address does not change.

Server slider button to On, then

Relay agent from the dropdown list.
