Manage IPv4 Groups and Hosts (IPv4 LAN Groups)

• Manage the Network Database
• Change Group Names in the Network Database
• Set Up DHCP Address Reservation
The Known PCs and Devices table on the LAN Groups (IPv4) screen (see
page 97) contains a list of all known computers and network devices that are assigned
dynamic IP addresses by the VPN firewall, have been discovered by other means, or were
entered manually. Collectively, these entries make up the network database.
The network database is updated by these methods:
• DHCP client requests. When the DHCP server is enabled, it accepts and responds to
DHCP client requests from computers and other network devices. These requests also
generate an entry in the network database. This is an advantage of enabling the DHCP
server feature.
• Scanning the network. The local network is scanned using Address Resolution Protocol
(ARP) requests. The ARP scan detects active devices that are not DHCP clients.
Note: In large networks, scanning the network might generate unwanted
traffic.
Note: When the VPN firewall receives a reply to an ARP request, it might
not be able to determine the device name if the software firewall of
the device blocks the name.
• Manual entry. You can manually enter information about a network device.
These are some advantages of the network database:
• Generally, you do not need to enter an IP address or a MAC address. Instead, you can
select the name of the desired computer or device.
