Figure 31 : DHCP Server Status
Parameter Description
Server status Determines whether the DHCP server is enabled or disabled.
Server IP address The IP address of the DHCP server.
Server IP address
range
The pool of IP addresses that the DHCP server can lease to the DHCP clients.
Number of IP
addresses
excluded
The number of IP addresses that are not allocated from the server's IP address range. These
addresses are typically used for hosts on the VSATs LAN that required static IP addresses.
Excluded IP
address range
It is a subrange of the server IP address range, containing IP addresses that should not be
allocated by the DHCP server. This range is an interval; it is defined with the help of the
starting IP address and the ending IP address for the excluded range.
Lease time Time period for which an IP address is leased to a DHCP client
The DHCP client table shows information about the IP addresses that are currently leased from
the DHCP server: host name, IP address, MAC address, and lease time expiration. The DHCP
server will only lease IP addresses to the LAN hosts for 15 minutes until it has acquired the
network time. The DHCP server will apply the configured lease time when the network time is
acquired.
