MAC Address

The MAC (Media Access Control) or Ethernet address on a LAN (Local Area

 

Network) is unique to your computer (six pairs of hexadecimal notation).

 

A network interface card such as an Ethernet adapter has a hardwired address

 

that is assigned at the factory. This address follows an industry standard that

 

ensures no other adapter has a similar address.

 

 

Reserve

Select the check box in the heading row to automatically select all check boxes or

 

select the check box(es) in each entry to have the ZyXEL Device always assign

 

the selected entry(ies)’s IP address(es) to the corresponding MAC address(es)

 

(and host name(s)). You can select up to 128 entries in this table. After you click

 

Apply, the MAC address and IP address also display in the LAN Static DHCP

 

screen (where you can edit them).

 

 

Modify

Click the modify icon to have the IP address field editable and change it.

 

 

Apply

Click Apply to save your changes back to the ZyXEL Device.

Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.

 

 

Refresh

Click Refresh to reload the DHCP table.

 

 

8.7 LAN IP Alias
