You can now enter the desired values by selecting the various tabs.
The assignment of IP addresses to the various computers can be checked
using the 'Setup/DHCP/Table-DHCP' item in the DHCP module. This table
contains the assigned IP address, the MAC address, the validity, the name of
the computer (if available) and the type of address assignment.
The 'Type' field specifies how the address was assigned. This field can
assume the following values:
new
The computer has made its initial request. The DHCP server verifies the
uniqueness of the address that is to be assigned to the computer.
unknown
While verifying uniqueness, it was determined that the address has
already been assigned to another computer. Unfortunately, the DHCP
server has no means of obtaining additional information on this com-
puter.
status
A computer has informed the DHCP server that it has a fixed IP address.
This address can no longer be used.
dynamic
The DHCP server assigned an address to the computer.

Configuring the DHCP server
Basically, two starting points are possible when the devices are configured
as a DHCP server:
You have not yet configured a network or your existing local network
does not use TCP/IP. The DHCP server in your new ELSA lets you assign
IP addresses to all of the computers in the network and to the router in a
single operation.
You are already using TCP/IP but without a DHCP server, and you would
now like to convert to DHCP operation.
