2. Select the radio button next to any group name to make that name active for editing.
3. Type a new name in the field.
4. Select and edit other group names if desired.
5. Click Apply to save your settings.

Setting Up DHCP Address Reservation

When you specify a reserved IP address for a device on the LAN (based on the MAC address of
the device), that computer or device will always receive the same IP address each time it accesses
the VPN firewall's DHCP server. Reserved IP addresses should be assigned to servers or access
points that require permanent IP settings. The Reserved IP address that you select must be outside
of the DHCP Server pool.
To reserve an IP address, manually enter the device on the LAN Groups screen, specifying
Reserved (DHCP Client), as described in
8.
