Miscellaneous Network Configuration
A profile can include a hostname within a DHCP lease for a
requesting device. This helps an administrator track the leased DHCP IP address by
hostname for the supported device profile. When numerous DHCP leases are assigned,
an administrator can better track the leases when hostnames are used instead of
devices.
To include hostnames in DHCP requests:
-
Select the tab from the Web UI.
-
Expand the Network menu and
select Miscellaneous.
Network -
Miscellaneous screen
-
Select the Include Hostname in DHCP Request option to
include a hostname in a DHCP lease for a requesting device. This feature is
enabled by default.
-
Select the DHCP Persistent Lease option to retain the
lease that was last used by the access point if the access point‘s DHCP server
resource were to become unavailable. This feature is enabled by default.
-
Select the OK button located at the bottom right of the
screen to save the changes. Select Reset to revert to the
last saved configuration.
