Configuring Sta c DHCP Entries

Sta c entries are IP addresses assigned to servers requiring permanent IP se ngs. Because SonicOS Enhanced allows mul ple DHCP
scopes per interface, there is no requirement that the subnet range is a ached to the interface when configuring DHCP scopes.

To configure sta c entries:

1 In the Network > DHCP Server page, at the bo om of the DHCP Server Lease Scopes table, click Add Sta c. The Sta c Entry Configura on
dialog displays.

General Se ngs
2 In the General tab, make sure the Enable this DHCP Scope is checked, if you want to enable this entry.
3 Enter a name for the sta c DNS entry in the Entry Name field.
4 Type the device IP address in the Sta c IP Address field.
5 Type the device Ethernet (MAC) address in the Ethernet Address field.
6 Type the number of minutes an IP address is used before it is issued another IP address in the Lease Time (minutes) field. 1440 minutes (24
hours) is the default value.
7 To populate the Default Gateway and Subnet Mask fields with default values for a certain interface, select the Interface Pre-Populate check
box near the bo om of the page and choose the interface from the drop-down list. The populated IP addresses are in the same private
subnet as the selected interface.

NOTE: To select an interface from the Interface menu, it must first be fully configured and it must be of the
zone type, LAN, WLAN, or DMZ, or be a VLAN sub-interface.

8 Use the populated gateway address or type the IP address of the gateway into the Default Gateway field.
9 Use the populated subnet mask or type the gateway subnet mask into the Subnet Mask field.

VoIP clients on the network.

addresses.
17 Under Network Boot Se ngs, in the Next Server field, enter the IP address of the PXE boot server (TFTP server) that a PXE client uses during
the next stage of the boot process.

The fields under Network Boot Se ngs are used in a Pre-boot Execu on Environment (PXE), in which the client boots up using
files obtained over a network interface. The PXE client obtains the IP address and name of the PXE boot server, and the boot
 file name, from the DHCP server.
When using these op ons, select PXE under DHCP Generic Op ons.
18 In the Boot File field, type in the name of the boot file that the PXE client can get over TFTP from the PXE boot server.
