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:
Procedure
Go to Configuration →
Devices.
The Device Configuration
screen displays. This screen lists wireless controllers, service
platforms and access points within the managed network.
Select a device from the list
displayed.
The selected device's
configuration screen displays.
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.
In the LACP System Priority
field, select the LACP System Priority
option and use the associated spinner control to set this access
point's priority in the LACP negotiation process.
Use to configure an LACP-enabled peer‘s system priority value. Link
Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) uses this system priority
value along with the peer‘s MAC address to form the system ID. In a
Link Aggregation Group (LAG), the peer with the lower
system ID initiates LACP negotiations with another peer. In scenarios, where
both peers have the same system-priority value assigned, the peer with the
lower MAC gets precedence.
Click OK to save the
changes.
Click Reset to revert
to the last saved configuration.
