2.6.3 Static DHCP Leases Table
This function allows you to assign a static IP address to a specic computer forever,
so you don’t need to set the IP address for a computer to enjoy the benet of using
a DHCP server. A maximum of 16 static IP addresses can be assigned here.
NOTE: If you set “Lease Time” to “Forever” in the DHCP Server section, you can
also assign an IP address to a specic computer permanently; however, you won’t
be able to assign a certain IP address to a specic computer, since IP addresses
will be assigned in random order this way.
