WAN Network Mode: NAT with DHCP Client
DHCP is a networking mode that allows you to obtain an IP address for a specific length of time
from a DHCP server. The length of time is called a lease which is renewed by the DHCP server
typically after a few days. When the lease is ready to expire, the client contacts the server to
renew the lease. This is a common network configuration for customers with cable or DSL
modems. You are not assigned a specific IP address by your ISP.
