If you click
Static DHCP Configuration
in the
Static DHCP
screen or the
Edit
icon next to a static DHCP
entry, the following screen displays. Using a static DHCP means a client will always have the same IP
address assigned to it by the DHCP server. Assign a fixed IP address to a device by selecting the
interface group of this device and its IP address type and selecting the device/computer from a list or
manually entering its MAC address and assigned IP address.

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