IP Address Source
This features allows the user to select how an IP address is assigned to a client
computer or a network device. Select DHCP (Dynamic Host Confi guration Protocol)
to allow a client (computer or device) obtains an IP address from a DHCP server
that manages a pool of IP addresses and network information on a "request and
grant" basis. Upon time-out (or lease expiration), the IP address assigned to the
client can be reassigned to a new client. Select Static (Static Allocation) to allow
the host server to allocate an IP address based on a table containing MAC Address/
IP Address pairs that are manually entered (probably by a network administrator).
Only clients with a MAC address listed in the MAC/IP Address Table will be as-
signed an IP address. The IP Address allocated to the client is on a longer term
basis than that assigned by the DHCP mentioned in the other option. The options
are DHCP and Static.
