Reserved IP adresses

When you specify a reserved IP address for a PC on the LAN, that PC will always receive the
same IP address each time it access the firewall's DHCP server. Reserved IP addresses should be
assigned to servers that require permanent IP settings.
To reserve an IP address:
Click the Add button.
1.
In the IP Address box, type the IP address to assign to the PC or server.
2.
(choose an IP address from the router's LAN subnet, such as 192.168.0.X)
Type the MAC Address of the PC or server.
3.
(Tip: If the PC is already present on your network, you can copy its MAC address from the
Attached Devices menu and paste it here.)
Click Apply to enter the reserved address into the table.
4.
Note: The reserved address will not be assigned until the next time the PC contacts the router's
DHCP server. Reboot the PC or access its IP configuration and force a DHCP release and renew.
To edit or delete a reserved address entry:
Click the button next to the reserved address you want to edit or delete.
1.
Click Edit or Delete.

Static Routes

Static Routes provide additional routing information to your firewall. Under normal
circumstances, the firewall has adequate routing information after it has been configured for
Internet access, and you do not need to configure additional static routes. You must configure
static routes only for unusual cases such as multiple routers or multiple IP subnets located on your
network.
