or nearly full, you need to recover space in the table for new entries, and you know that some of the currently allocated leases are no longer needed. Clicking Revoke cancels the lease for a specific LAN device and frees an entry in the lease table. Do this only if the device no longer needs the leased IP address, because, for example, it has been removed from the network.

Add/Edit Static DHCP Client

This option lets you reserve IP addresses, and assign the same IP address to the network device with the specified MAC address any time it requests an IP address. This is almost the same as if a device has a static IP address except that it must still request an IP address from the Wireless router. The Wireless router will provide the device the same IP address every time. Static DHCP is helpful for server computers on the local network that are hosting applications such as Web and FTP. Servers on your network should either use a static IP address or use this option.

MAC Address: To input the MAC address of your system, enter it in manually or connect to the Wireless router's Web-Management interface from the system and click the Copy Your PC's MAC Address button.

A MAC address is usually located on a sticker on the bottom of a network device. The MAC address is comprised of twelve digits. Each pair of hexadecimal digits are usually separated by dashes or colons such as 00-0D-88-11-22-33 or 00:0D:88:11:22:33. If your network device is a computer and the network card is already located inside the computer, you can connect to the Wireless router from the computer and click the Copy Your PC's MAC Address button to enter the MAC address.

As an alternative, you can locate a MAC address in a specific operating system by following the steps below:

Windows 98SE

Go to the Start menu, select Run, type in winipcfg, and hit Enter. A popup

Windows Me

window will be displayed. Select the appropriate adapter from the

 

pull-down menu and you will see the Adapter Address. This is the MAC

 

address of the device.

Windows 2000

Go to your Start menu, select Programs, select Accessories, and select

Windows XP

Command Prompt. At the command prompt type ipconfig /all and hit

 

Enter. The physical address displayed for the adapter connecting to the

 

router is the MAC address.

Mac OS X

Go to the Apple Menu, select System Preferences, select Network, and

 

select the Ethernet Adapter connecting to the Wireless router. Select the

 

Ethernet button and the Ethernet ID will be listed. This is the same as the

 

MAC address.

Computer Name: You can assign a name for each computer that is given a static IP address. This may help you keep track of which computers are assigned this way.

Example:

Game Server

Static DHCP Client List

This shows clients that you have specified to have static DHCP address. An entry can be changed by clicking the Edit icon, or deleted by clicking the Delete icon. When you click the Edit icon, the item is highlighted, and the "Edit Static DHCP Client" section is activated for editing.
