6.3.1.6 Modifying time limits for IP assignments
The following procedure is only applicable for configurations if the controller is the
DHCP server for users in the VNS—a routed VNS or a VLAN bridged VNS with
DHCP enabled (by default, DHCP is local). These values are not visible for a
bridged at AP VNS or a VLAN bridged VNS with DHCP disabled (by default,
DHCP is disabled).
Time limits for IP assignments dictate the default and the maximum time limits a
wireless device can keep the DHCP server-assigned IP address.
