6.2 DHCP Server
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The built-in DHCP server automatically assigns IP addresses to
the computers and other devices on each local area network (LAN). In this section you can view a list of assigned IP
addresses and reserve IP addresses for particular devices.
Active Leases: A list of devices that have
been provided DHCP leases. The DHCP
server automatically assigns these leases.
This list will not include any devices that
have static IP addresses on the network.
Select a device and click Reserve to add
the device and its IP address to the list of
Reservations.
Reservations: This is a list of devices with
reserved IP addresses. This reservation is
almost the same as when a device has a static IP address except that the device must still request an IP address from the
router. The router will provide the device the same IP address every time. DHCP reservations are helpful for server
computers on the local network that are hosting applications such as Web and FTP. Servers on your network should
either use a static IP address or a reservation.
While you have the option to manually input the information to reserve an IP address (Hostname, Hardware Addr, IP
Addr), it is much simpler to select a device under the Active Leases section and click "Reserve." The selected device's
information will automatically be added under Reservations.
