The table has the following columns:
● Interface
Interface to which the setting relates.
● DHCP
Enable or disable the DHCP client for the relevant interface.
● IAID Value
Value with which the interface (DHCP client) identifies itself with the DHCP server.
Procedure
Follow the steps below to configure the IP address using the DHCP client ID:
1. Select the identification method in the "DHCP Mode" drop-down list.
If you select the DHCP mode "via DHCP Client ID" an input box appears.
In the enabled input box "DHCP client ID" enter a string to identify the device. This is then
evaluated by the DHCP server.
2. Select the "DHCP Client Configuration Request (Opt. 66, 67)", if you want the DHCP client
to use options 66 and 67 to download and then enable a configuration file.
3. Enable the "DHCP" option in the table.
4. Click the "Set Values" button.
Note
If a configuration file is downloaded, this can trigger a system restart. If the currently running
configuration and the configuration in the downloaded configuration file differ, the system
restarts.
Make sure that the option "DHCP Client Configuration Request (Opt. 66, 67)" is no longer
set.

DHCP Server
You can operate the device as a DHCP server. This allows IP addresses to be assigned
automatically to the connected devices. The IP addresses are either distributed dynamically
from an address band (pool) you have specified or a specific IP address is assigned to a
particular device.
On this page, specify the address band from which the device receives any IP address. You
configure the static assignment of the IP addresses in "Static Leases".
