Dashboard: IP Leases
IP addresses are issued by the Authonet firewall DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
service. IP addresses are leased for a specified length of time. When the lease expires the device
operating system (e.g. Windows, MAC OS, Linux. etc.) will request a new IP lease for the same
IP address.
Click on Dashboard, IP leases to list all devices that are connected to the Authonet firewall. Each
entry shows the following information
IP address assigned to the device by the DHCP service
Network name of the device
MAC address of the device Ethernet interface
Expiration time of the IP lease
Associated device name if the device has been registered as a known device
The data for one device is shown in the figure below.
