parameters:
If adding a new pool, a name is required. The pool is the range of IP
addresses defined for DHCP assignment or lease. The name assigned
cannot be modified as part of the edit process. However, if the network
pool configuration is obsolete it can be deleted. The name cannot exceed
32 characters.
Define the IP address and Subnet Mask used for DHCP discovery and
requests between the DHCP Server and DHCP clients. The IP address and
subnet mask of the pool are required to match the addresses of the layer 3
interface for the addresses to be supported through that interface.
Provide the domain name used with this pool. Domain names are not case
sensitive and can contain alphabetic or numeric letters or a hyphen. A fully
qualified domain name (FQDN) consists of a host name plus a domain
name. For example, computername.domain.com.
Define one or a group of Domain Name Servers (DNS) to translate domain
names to IP addresses. Select clear to remove any single IP address as
needed. Up to 8 IP addresses can be supported.
DHCP leases provide addresses for defined times to various clients. If a
client does not use the leased address for the defined time, that IP address
can be re-assigned to another DHCP supported client. Select this option to
assign a lease time in either Seconds (1 - 31, 622, 399), Minutes
(1 - 527,040), Hours (1 - 8,784) or Days (1 - 366). The default setting is
enabled, with a lease time of 1 day.
After a DHCP client has booted, the client begins sending packets to its
default router. Set the IP address of one or a group of routers used to map
host names into IP addresses available to DHCP supported clients. Up to 8
default router IP addresses are supported.
