The parameters are described below:

IP Address – This is the static IP address to be assigned.

MAC Address – This specifies the physical address of the particular host that will receive the above IP

address.

All other parameters (Netmask, Gateway, DNS IP, WINS IP, State, and Domain Name) are identical to those in
the Dynamic IP Pool configuration, in the previous section.

DHCP Relay Agent

The DHCP Relay Agent feature allows the DI-1162 to act as a go-between for a remote DHCP server assigning IP
addresses to local clients. This can be useful if you wish to have all IP addresses in your company, including those
in branch offices, assigned from a DHCP server centrally located at your headquarters, for example.
