Description of the menu options R103

Table-DHCP

Here you can enter the period of validity that is assigned if the host makes no request.

The DEFAULT value of 500 minutes equals approximately 8 hours.

In the DCHP module, the 'Table-DCHP' option allows you to verify (or look up) the assignment of IP addresses to the relevant computers. This table has the following layout:

IP-address	Node-ID	Timeout	Hostname	Type
10.1.1.10	00a0570308e1	500	ELSA	new

KIP-address: IP address assigned

KNode-IP: The computer’s Ethernet address

KTimeout: Time remaining until the assignment becomes invalid

KHostname: The computer’s name in plain text if it was transmitted in the request

KType: This field contains additional information on the assignment.

The 'Type' field specifies how the address was assigned. This field can assume the following values:

–new: The computer has made its initial request. The DHCP server verifies the uniqueness of the address that is to be assigned to the computer.

–unkn.: While verifying uniqueness, it was determined that the address has already been assigned to another computer. Unfortunately, the DHCP server has no means of obtaining additional information on this computer.

–stat.: A computer has informed the DHCP server that it has a fixed IP address. This address can no longer be used.

–dyn.: The DHCP server assigned an address to the computer.
