4.4.2 Machines Declared
Use the Machines declared tab to specify particular behaviors considering the DHCP service,
such as:
- One machine needs a static IP address (for example a server, or a printer).
- You want to limit the DHCP service to a particular list of machines (for example to avoid
that visitors equipped with laptop computers can connect to the local network).
To declare a machine:
1. Select the Machines declared tab.
2. Select the appropriate network connection.
3. Give any name that clearly identifies the machine in the network.
4. Enter its MAC address. A Media Access Control address (MAC address) is a unique
identifier attached to the machine network adapter.
5. Select whether this machine IP address is static or dynamic (assigned by the DHCP
server).
6. If the machine IP address is static, enter its IP address. This address must be in the
concerned network and outside the IP address range reserved for DHCP.
7. Click OK.
4.4.3 DHCP Leases
The DHCP leases tab is for consultation only. It lists the DHCP leases that have been
