A. No, it cannot. The default number of DHCP users is 50. This can be changed to a maximum of 252 users. The built-in DHCP server will issue IP address leases starting at 192.168.1.100. This will also allow you to configure other devices with static IP addresses from 3-99. For example your Servers, Printers, APs, etc. If you would still like to change the default behavior of the DHCP server, you can do so.
