To Reserve Specific IP Addresses for Predetermined DHCP Clients
You can reserve a fixed IP address for a predetermined client
(identified by its MAC address) to exclude it from the pool of free IP
addresses the DHCP server draws on for its dynamic address allocation.
For example: If you set up a publicly accessible FTP/HTTP server within
your private LAN, that server would require a fixed IP address, whereas
you would still want the DHCP server to dynamically allocate IP
addresses to the rest of the PCs on the LAN.
Follow these steps to modify the settings of the built-in DHCP server.
