<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a network setting method for automatically distributing an address at a high speed to devices on a network divided sub networks through routers and automatically constructing a configuration information even if the configuration of the network is changed. <P>SOLUTION: A network address management server connected to a top network conducts centralized control for an address block to be assigned to a sub network. Each router receives a setting information including the address block of a lower network transmitted from the network address management server, and distributes an address to a host on the lower network through a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), based on the address block assigned to the lower network. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
