Dhcp Status - B&B Electronics SPECTRE Configuration Manual

1.3. DHCP status

Information about the DHCP server can be accessed by selecting the DHCP status. The
DHCP server provides automatic configuration of the client devices connected to the router. The
DHCP server assigns each device an IP address, subnet mask, default gateway (IP address of
router) and DNS server (IP address of router).
For each client in the list, the DHCP status window displays the following information.
Item
lease
starts
ends
hardware
ethernet
uid
client-hostname
The DHCP status may occasionally display two records for one IP address. This may be caused by
resetting the client network interface.
