Set Up DHCP Address Reservation
When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer or device on the LAN (based on the
MAC address of the device), that computer or device always receives the same IP address
each time it accesses the VPN firewall’s DHCP server. Reserved IP addresses should be
assigned to servers or access points that require permanent IP address settings. The
reserved IP address that you select needs to be outside of the DHCP server pool.
To reserve and bind an IP address to a MAC address, select Reserved (DHCP Client) from
the IP Address Type drop-down list on the LAN Groups screen and save the binding by
clicking the Save Binding button on the same screen. For detailed steps, see Add Computers
or Devices to the Network Database on page 94.
