DHCP Advanced Settings
The
DHCP Advanced Settings
page is used to modify the advanced
options of the DHCP server on the QX gateway. This page contains a
table where a list of default DHCP server options is already defined.
More options can be added from this page, as well as settings of the
existing options can be modified. All options in the table on this
page are then sent to the DHCP clients.
• The Authoritative checkbox is used to enable/disable
authoritative mode on the QX gateway DHCP server. Disabling
the checkbox is recommended if several DHCP servers are used
on the network and the QX gateway should provide network
parameters to IP phones only.
• The Ping Check checkbox enables checking the availability of
an IP address on the network before providing it to a client. If
this checkbox is selected, the QX gateway will first ping an IP
address retrieved from the IP pool and wait for a reply. If no a
reply is received within a timeout specified in the Ping
timeout text field (by default 1 sec), the retrieved IP address
will be provided to the client. If otherwise, a new IP address
will be retrieved from the IP pool and the procedure will be
repeated. If this checkbox is not selected, the QX IP PBX will
provide an IP address immediately when requested.

Option Value Type. If an array should be inserted here, the values should be separated with a comma.
DHCP Leases
The DHCP Leases page includes a list of the leased host addresses that are part of the QX gateway’s LAN. For these hosts, QX gateway acts as a server
supplying them with a unique IP address. It displays a read-only table describing all the leased IP hosts and their parameters. The table contains the
following columns:
IP address
- host IP address, assigned by QX gateway.
MAC address - host MAC address, provided by the host itself.
Lease Start - date and time when the leased IP address has been
activated.
Lease End - date and time when the leased IP address has been or
will be deactivated.
