Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) | 253
Create Manual Binding Entries
An address binding is a mapping between the IP address and Media Access Control (MAC) address of a
client. The DHCP server assigns the client an available IP address automatically, and then creates a entry in
the binding table. However, the administrator can manually create an entry for a client; manual bindings
are useful when you want to guarantee that a particular network device receives a particular IP address.
Manual bindings can be considered single-host address pools. There is no limit on the number of manual
bindings, but you can only configure one manual binding per host.
To create a manual binding:

Note: FTOS does not prevent you from using a network IP as a host IP; be sure to not use a network IP
as a host IP.
