Chapter 2 Command Descriptions 99
Options for configuring the scope's address reservations
(“item=reservation”)
item=reservation
Specifies that the DHCP server configuration settings apply to the
scope’s address reservations. You may use a reservation to create a
permanent address lease assignment by the DHCP server. Reservations
assure that a specified hardware device on the subnet can always use
the same IP address. Address lease reservations associate a specific IP
address with a specific client’s Ethernet MAC address.
action={set|revert}
Specifies the action to be performed by the “set dhcpserver” command.
set
Sets the DHCP configuration settings to the specified values. This is
the default setting that is used if this option is not specified.
revert
Resets the configuration settings for the specified item to default
values. This effectively removes the entry specified by the “range”
option.
range={1-16|all}
Selects the specific entry to which the action is to be applied.
enabled={on|off}
Enables the DHCP server feature on this Digi Connect product. Note that
for the DHCP server to operate, the Digi Connect product must be
configured to use a static IP address.
ip=ip address
The IP address reserved for the client. This value must not be the same
as the IP address of the DHCP Server itself.
clientid=client MAC address
The MAC address for the client, for example, 00:40:9D:12:34:56.
leasetime={time|infinite}
The length, in seconds, of the leases for the scope being served by this
DHCP server. Specifying a time of 0 means that the default of using the
scope’s lease time will be used. A DHCP client may request a lease
duration other than this setting, and the DHCP server will grant that
request, if possible. Leaving this option blank causes the default value
specified in the scope to be used. That default will change whenever the
scope changes.
