1. Enable DHCP Relay feature on device which will relay DHCP requests. In WebUI navigate to '''Network -> Interface -> LAN -> DHCP Server''' and change '''Enable DHCP''' field value from Enable to Relay and then type in the DHCP Server IP and click on Save & Apply.

4. In this topology DHCP Server has no route to DHCP Relay's network so it must be added manually.

'''Note:''' It's strongly recommended to use static IP configuration for DHCP Relay WAN interface otherwise there might be cases when WAN interface will receive new IP address which will cause static route to stop working.
