Hi Neron - I’m confused by your question. A DHCP server provides dynamic IP address assignment to systems that join the network. A Web server serves up web pages. These two technologies are completely independent of each other.

By definition the MyCloud has a built in web server (to allow you to access the management page). I suppose you could create a new home and start another daemon for it.

Regarding DHCP - I don’t see any apps available - however you could always enable ssh and download your own dhcp binaries, configure it and then start the daemon. You would be doing this at your own risk.
