Configuring address allocation mode for a common address
pool

CAUTION:

You can configure either a static binding or dynamic address allocation for a common address pool, but
not both.

You need to specify a subnet for dynamic address allocation. A static binding is a special address pool

containing only one IP address.

Configuring static address allocation

Some DHCP clients, such as a WWW server, need fixed IP addresses. To provide a fixed IP address, you

can create a static binding of a client’s MAC address or ID to an IP address in the DHCP address pool.

A static binding is a special address pool containing only one IP address.
When the client with that MAC address or ID requests an IP address, the DHCP server will assign the IP
address from the binding to the client.
Follow these steps to configure a static binding in a common address pool:

To do…

Use the command…
