available IP addresses. This is useful, for example, in education and customer environments where
MU users change frequently. Use longer leases if there are fewer users.
To generate a list of client MAC address to IP address mappings for the AP-5131:
1. Select Network Configuration -> LAN -> LAN1 (or LAN2) from the AP-5131 menu tree.
2. Click the Advanced DHCP Server button from within the LAN1 or LAN2 screen.
3. Specify a lease period in seconds for available IP addresses using the DHCP Lease Time
(Seconds) parameter. An IP address is reserved for re-connection for the length of time you
specify. The default interval is 86400 seconds.
4. Click the Add button to create a new table entry within the Reserved Clients field.
If a statically mapped IP address is within the IP address range in use by the DHCP server,
that IP address may still be assigned to another client. To avoid this, ensure all statically
mapped IP addresses are outside of the IP address range assigned to the DHCP server.
If multiple entries exist within the Reserved Clients field, use the scroll bar to the right of
the window to navigate.
5. Click the Del (delete) button to remove a selected table entry.
6. Click OK to return to the LAN1 or LAN2 page, where the updated settings within the
Advanced DHCP Server screen can be saved by clicking the Apply button.
