EXCLUDING FIXED IP ADDRESSES
If the PC does not support DHCP, you will need to manually
configure the IP address on that PC and then make sure that the
DHCP server never assigns that IP address. If you add the
address in the DHCP server’s “exclude” table, we can make sure
the router never assigns that IP address.
Follow the steps below to configure the router to exclude the IP
address assigned to the PC:
1. At the PC, manually configure the IP address. Record the
IP address.
2. Open a browser window and login to the router.
3. Click Basic Configuration, then DHCP Server, then
Excluded IP Table. This displays the Excluded IP Table
screen (see Figure 18).
