Viewing DHCP Server Networks Information

DHCP Server

The DHCP server maintains a pool of IP addresses and client configuration parameters (default
gateway, domain name, name servers etc). On receiving a valid client request, the server assigns
the requestor an IP address, a lease (the validity of time), and other IP configuration parameters.

The Networks screen provides network pool information such as the subnet for the addresses you
want to use from the pool, the pool name, the used addresses and the total number of addresses.

To view the DHCP Server Networks information:

1. Select the Statistics menu from the Web UI.

2. Select a Wireless Controller node from the left navigation pane.

3. Expand the DHCP Server menu from the left-hand side of the UI.

4. Select Networks.
