5.1.2.1 Configuring Advanced DHCP Server Settings

Use the
Advanced DHCP Server
devices. Every wireless, 802.11x-standard device has a unique Media Access Control (MAC) address.
This address is the device's hard-coded hardware number (shown on the bottom or back). An example
of a MAC address is 00:A0:F8:45:9B:07.
The DHCP server can grant an IP address for as long as it remains in active use. The lease time is the
number of seconds an IP address is reserved for re-connection after its last use. Using very short
leases, DHCP can dynamically reconfigure networks in which there are more computers than
available IP addresses. This is useful, for example, in education and customer environments where
MU users change frequently. Use longer leases if there are fewer users.
To generate a list of client MAC address to IP address mappings for the access point:

Selecting this checkbox allows the LAN to employ filter policies
and rules to determine which IP packets are processed normally
over the LAN and which are discarded. If discarded, a packet is
deleted and ignored (as if never received).
Select the IP Filtering button to display a screen where existing IP
filter policies can be applied to the LAN to allow or deny IP packets
in either an incoming or outgoing direction based on the rules
defined for the policy.
