Configuring Static DHCP Entries
Static entries are IP addresses assigned to servers requiring permanent IP settings. Because
SonicOS Enhanced allows multiple DHCP scopes per interface, there is no requirement that
the subnet range is attached to the interface when configuring DHCP scopes.
To configure static entries, follow these steps:
Step 1 In the Network > DHCP Server page, at the bottom of the DHCP Server Lease Scopes table,
click Add Static. The Static Entry Configuration window is displayed.
General Settings
Step 2 In the General tab, make sure the Enable this DHCP Scope is checked, if you want to enable
this entry.
Step 3 Enter a name for the static DNS entry in the Entry Name field.
Step 4 Type the device IP address in the Static IP Address field.
Step 5 Type the device Ethernet (MAC) address in the Ethernet Address field.
Step 6 Type the number of minutes an IP address is used before it is issued another IP address in the
Lease Time (minutes) field. 1440 minutes (24 hours) is the default value.
