DHCP LEASES

The currently assigned DHCP leases are view able at Status > DHCP leases. This page shows various aspects of the client leases. These include:

• The assigned IP address
• The client MAC address
• The hostname (if any) that the client sent as part of the DHCP request
• The description for a host with a DHCP static mapping
• The beginning and end times of the lease
• Whether or not the machine is currently online (in the firewall’s ARP table)
• Whether or not the lease is active, expired, or a static registration View inactive leases

By default, only active and static leases are shown, but everything, including the expired leases, may be displayed by clicking Show all configured leases. To reduce the view back to normal, click Show active and static leases only.
