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

DHCP Clients
Lists all DHCP clients currently connected to the device, either
via an Ethernet link, or via a wireless connection. Each client
is listed with the following information:
MAC Address / IP Address / Subnet Mask
Duration / Expires: Duration displays the accumulated
time since the client acquired the IP address. Expires is
the time until the IP expires and must be recycled. If the
IP address is reserved to a certain host, it shows STATIC
IP ADDRESS.
Select: Reserves the current private IP address to be
assigned to this host statically when selected.
Force Available
Activates a selected rule in the DHCP Clients list and assigns
IP addresses. Note: The Select button must be activated in the
DHCP list.
