Reserved IP addresses

When you specify a reserved IP address for a PC on the LAN, that PC will always receive the
same IP address each time it access the firewall’s DHCP server. Reserved IP addresses should be
assigned to servers that require permanent IP settings.

To reserve an IP address:

1.

Click Add.

2.

In the IP Address box, type the IP address to assign to the PC or server.

Choose an IP address from the router’s LAN subnet, such as 192.168.0.X.

3.

Type the MAC Address of the PC or server.

Tip: If the PC is already present on your network, you can copy its MAC address from the
Attached Devices menu and paste it here.

4.

Click Apply to enter the reserved address into the table.

Note: The reserved address will not be assigned until the next time the PC contacts the
router's DHCP server. Reboot the PC or access its IP configuration and force a DHCP release
and renew.

To edit or delete a reserved address entry:

1.

Click the button next to the reserved address you want to edit or delete.

2.

Click Edit or Delete.
