8.3 The Static DHCP Screen

This table allows you to assign IP addresses on the LAN to specific individual computers based on
their MAC Addresses.

Every Ethernet device has a unique MAC (Media Access Control) address. The MAC address is
assigned at the factory and consists of six pairs of hexadecimal characters, for example,
00:A0:C5:00:00:02.

Use this screen to change your Device’s static DHCP settings. Click Network Setting > Home
Networking > Static DHCP to open the following screen.
