How to set up DHCP reservation

Why would I use it? DHCP reservation allows you to assign a unique, fixed IP address to a specific device on your network. Assigning a fixed IP address is a good way to manage devices such as print servers, web cameras, network printers, and game consoles. A fixed IP address is also recommended if you want to use port forwarding for devices that need to receive inbound traffic from the Internet (“How to set up port forwarding” on page 48).

To configure DHCP reservation:

1.Log into Cisco Connect Cloud. (See “How to configure your router” on page 11.

2.Under Router Settings, click Connectivity.

3.Click the Local Network tab, then click DHCP Reservations. The DHCP Reservations list opens, which lists attached network devices and current DHCP reservations.

4.Click the Select checkbox next to the device you want to reserve, then click Add DHCP Reservation.
