Viewing DHCP Leased Clients
You can view a list of endpoints on the network (identified by hostname, IP
address, or MAC address) and see the IP addresses assigned to them by the
DHCP server. The VLAN of the endpoints is also displayed.
To view the DHCP clients, choose
Networking
>
LAN
>
DHCP Leased Clients
.
For every VLAN defined on the device, a table displays a list of the clients
associated with the VLAN.
To assign a static IP address to one of the connected devices:
STEP 1
In the row of the connected device, check Add to Static DHCP.
STEP 2
Click
Save
.
The DHCP server on the device always assigns the IP address shown when the
device requests an IP address.
Configuring a DMZ Host
The device supports demilitarized zones (DMZ). A DMZ is a subnetwork that is
open to the public but behind the firewall. A DMZ allows you to redirect packets
going to your WAN port IP address to a particular IP address in your LAN.
We recommended that you place hosts that must be exposed to the WAN (such as
web or e-mail servers) in the DMZ network. You can configure firewall rules to
allow access to specific services and ports in the DMZ from both the LAN or WAN.
In the event of an attack on any of the DMZ nodes, the LAN is not necessarily
vulnerable.
You must configure a fixed (static) IP address for the endpoint that you designate
as the DMZ host. You should assign the DMZ host an IP address in the same
subnet as the device LAN IP address, but it cannot be identical to the IP address
given to the LAN interface of this gateway.
To configure DMZ:
STEP 1
Choose
Networking
>
LAN
>
DMZ Host
.
STEP 2
Check
Enable
to enable DMZ on the network.
