Using the Static Lease Option
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 reconnects. 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 IP Filtering Option on page 59
Using the DMZ Option on page 65
Field descriptions are listed below the screen example.

DHCP Settings
DHCP Start IP
Defines the starting IP address for the pool of IP addresses that can be used by connecting clients.
DHCP End IP
Defines the last IP address that can be used by connecting clients.
Lease Time
Defines the DHCP lease time duration in minutes between 1 and 71582788. A DHCP user’s PC
gets an IPv4 address with a lease time. When the lease time expires, the PC must connect to the
DHCP server and be issued a new, unused IPv4 address.
Note:
The default DHCP lease time is 3600 seconds and should be changed to
86400
seconds
(24 hours). This helps resolve connectivity issues with some Mac and Windows 7 devices that turn
off the network interface when they go into standby mode. This results in slow Web browsing until
the device gets a new IPv4 address via DHCP.
