Lease status types

Descriptions of Lease Status values that are displayed in the lease list follow, including how long a lease table entry will remain in each state. Note that after a lease is deleted, the associated IP address is returned to the available address pool.

Assigned (active)

A lease is currently assigned and active for the given client. The client may renew the lease, in which case the lease remains in this state.

Assigned (expired)

A lease has expired and is no longer active for the given client. A lease in this state will remain for a 4 hour grace period, after which it is deleted. If the same client requests an IP address before the lease is deleted, it will be given the same IP address previously served to it.

Reserved (active)

A lease for an address reservation is currently active for the given client. A reservation lease will remain indefinitely, although the status may alternate between active and inactive.

Reserved (inactive)

A lease for an address reservation is currently inactive for the given client. A reservation lease will remain indefinitely, although the status may alternate between active and inactive.

Reserved (unavail)

A lease for an address reservation was offered to a client, but that client actively declined to use the IP address. Typically this is because the client determined that another host on the same subnetwork is already using that IP address. Upon receiving the client's decline message, the DHCP server will mark the address as unavailable. The lease will remain in this state for 4 hours, after which it is reverts to the Reserved (inactive) status.

Offered (pre-lease)

A lease has been offered to the given client, but that client has not yet requested that the lease be acknowledged. It may be that the client also received an offer from another DHCP server, in which case this offer will expire in approximately 2 minutes. If the client requests this lease before that 2 minute interval elapses, this lease will change status to Assigned. If the 2 minute interval expires, the offer record is deleted and the associated IP address is returned immediately to the available address pool.

X4, X8, X2 specifications

Digi X2 and X1 are advanced cellular IoT (Internet of Things) gateways that provide an innovative solution for industrial applications, smart cities, and remote asset management. Both devices equip users with the means to connect, monitor, and control a wide variety of assets without the limitations traditionally imposed by wired connections.

Digi X2, designed for complex IoT demands, features dual SIM slots which ensures uninterrupted connectivity through automatic failover. This makes it particularly valuable for critical applications where connectivity is non-negotiable. Additionally, the X2 is equipped with LTE-M and NB-IoT support, enabling extensive coverage in areas where other networks may struggle.

On the software side, the Digi X2 supports Digi Remote Manager, a powerful tool that allows users to monitor, manage, and deploy devices remotely. This cloud-based management system simplifies the overall management of IoT devices by providing real-time insights, easy configuration changes, and over-the-air updates, saving both time and resources.

In contrast, the Digi X1 serves as an entry-level model that balances performance with cost-effectiveness. It supports LTE connectivity, providing a reliable connection suitable for a variety of applications. The X1 also offers seamless integration with existing networks, allowing users to leverage their current infrastructure while expanding their IoT capabilities.

Both Digi X2 and X1 are designed with ruggedness in mind, making them suitable for deployment in harsh environments. They are engineered to withstand extreme temperatures and vibrations, ensuring reliability even in demanding industrial settings.

Another notable characteristic of these devices is their extensive input/output (I/O) capabilities, which enable them to interact with sensors, machines, and other types of devices. This versatility allows for a broad spectrum of applications, from monitoring temperatures in remote locations to tracking assets across geographic boundaries.

In summary, the Digi X1 and X2 provide robust, reliable, and scalable solutions for modern IoT implementations. With their advanced cellular connectivity, cloud management capabilities, and durable design, they are poised to enhance connectivity across industries, driving efficiencies and enabling smarter operations. Whether for critical industrial applications or efficient asset management, Digi's offerings are tailored to meet the diverse needs of today's IoT landscape.
