Reserving an IP Address for a Host

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 DGFV338's DHCP server. Reserved IP addresses should
be assigned to servers that require permanent IP settings. For example, if you have configured any
inbound firewall rules to direct incoming traffic to a device on your LAN, that device should have
either a fixed IP address or a reserved address.
IP addresses can be reserved in the LAN Groups menu.
