The DHCP Server Details screen provides the following user-activated
prompts:
DHCP Hosts Screen
In some cases, it may be necessary to provide an IP station with a specific
DHCP server name, which may be used by the IP station when making a
DHCP request. That name is included on the DHCP Hosts screen (Figure
4.70), which identifies the DHCP server sending DHCP packets.
Figure 4.70 DHCP Hosts Screen
Host Name The name of the DHCP Server. Default is none.
Select “Add New” to add a new host name.
NOTICE:
You must Save and Restart for the new Server name to become active.
Static Entries Screen
The Static Entries screen (Figure 4.71) lists static IP Addresses associated

used for a given PC provided its MAC Address is known. These parameters
are configured on the Static Entries Details screen accessed by selecting a
number from the “Entry Index” column.
