dhcp server allocation issues

Hi,

I want to do 3 easy things with the dhcp server
- Assign DHCP addresses from 192.168.2.1/25 to .128)
- Assign predefined DHCP adresses based on the MAC address.
- Exclude several IP adresses

You can mark the option "allocate ip only when IP-MAC mapping is defined". but in that case the exclued ip table will be ignored.
And it seems that the dynamic assignment of ip addresses is not working anymore

Kind regards,
Ruud

In that case, you can simply define the IP-MAC list in the right side, but don't select the checkbox "Allocate IP only when IP-MAC mapping is defined".

FirstSpot DHCP server will try to match the MAC address initially. If it fails, it will assign the IP from the dynamic pool of IP addresses.
