To generate a list of client MAC address to IP address mappings for the access point:
1 Select Network Configuration > LAN > LAN1 (or LAN2) from the access point menu tree.
2 Click the Advanced DHCP Server button from within the LAN1 or LAN2 screen.
3 Specify a lease period in seconds for available IP addresses using the DHCP Lease Time (Seconds)
parameter. An IP address is reserved for re-connection for the length of time you specify. The default
interval is 86400 seconds.
4 Click the Add button to create a new table entry within the Reserved Clients field.
If a statically mapped IP address is within the IP address range in use by the DHCP server, that IP
address may still be assigned to another client. To avoid this, ensure all statically mapped IP
addresses are outside of the IP address range assigned to the DHCP server.
If multiple entries exist within the Reserved Clients field, use the scroll bar to the right of the
window to navigate.
5 Click the Del (delete) button to remove a selected table entry.
6 Click OK to return to the LAN1 or LAN2 page, where the updated settings within the Advanced
DHCP Server screen can be saved by clicking the Apply button.
7 Click Cancel to undo any changes made. Undo Changes reverts the settings displayed to the last
saved configuration.
Setting the Type Filter Configuration
Each access point LAN (either LAN1 or LAN2) can keep a list of frame types that it forwards or
discards. The Type Filtering feature prevents specific (and potentially unnecessary) frames from being
processed by the access point in order to improve throughput. These include certain broadcast frames
from devices that consume bandwidth, but are unnecessary to access point operations.
Use the Ethernet Type Filter Configuration screen to build a list of filter types and configure them as either
allowed or denied for use with the this particular LAN.
