Using the DHCP Static Lease Option

You can use the Static Lease option to assign IP addresses to clients on your network
that do not change. A static lease ensures a specific device always gets the same IP
address, especially if devices are powered on and off or disconnected and reconnected.
This may be useful in a variety of networking scenarios where you need more control over
the network and the clients that connect to it. Examples in which you may need to use a
static lease include:
 Using the Advanced Gateway Setup IP Filtering Option on page 45
 Using the Advanced Gateway Setup Port Filtering Option on page 46
 Using the Advanced Gateway Settings DMZ Host Option on page 54
Steps
To assign static IP addresses:
1. Click the Gateway link from the top of the screen.
2. Click Static Lease from the left side of the screen. The Static Lease fields are
explained following this screen example.
