information from WAN is activated.
4.3.2 Number of Dynamic DHCP Clients.
This section displays what devices are currently leasing IP addresses. The
DHCP Client table displays the number of clients that are receiving an IP
address from the router, the computer name, MAC address, and IP address
assigned to each computer. You can use the Revoke IP address
option to
take away a leased IP address from a client. This feature is useful for freeing
up addresses when the client table is full or nearly full.
4.3.3 Add DHCP Reservation
Clients configured as DHCP can receive the same IP address all the time
using this feature. This is almost the same as if a device has a static IP
address except that it must still actually request an IP address from the
MBR1000. The MBR1000 will provide the device the same IP address all the
time. Servers on the network should either use a static IP address or this
option.

IP Address . The LAN address that you want to reserve.
MAC Address . To input the MAC address of your system, enter it manually or connect to the router‟s Web-Management interface from the system
and click the Copy Your PC’s MAC Address button.
A MAC address is usually located on a sticker on the bottom of a network device. The MAC address is comprised of twelve digits. Each pair of
hexadecimal digits are usually separated by dashes or colons such as 00-0D-88-11-22-33 or 00:0D:88:11:22:33. If your network device is a
computer and the network card is already located inside the computer, you can connect to the router from the computer and click the Copy Your
PC’s MAC Address
button to enter the MAC address.
