8.6 STB Vendor ID
Set-Top Box (STB) devices with dynamic IP addresses sometimes don’t renew their IP addresses before
the lease time expires. This could lead to IP address conflicts if the Set-Top Box continues to use an IP
address that gets assigned to another device. Use this screen to configure the Vendor IDs of connected
Set-Top Boxes, which have the VMG automatically created static DHCP entries for them when they
request IP addresses.
