DNS/DHCP Management Console

IP Addresses

IP addresses are a system of logical addresses used to identify hosts on a network. IP address property pages are used to manually configure individual IP addresses. To access IP address property pages, Addressing, Usage, and Other DHCP Options, double-click a Subnet object from the DHCP directory window, then select an IP Address object from the extended schema. IP Address objects are displayed in different colors depending on their assignment type.

Addressing: Use this tab to specify Dynamic, Exclusion, or Manual IP address assignment types.

Usage: Use this tab to assign permanent or timed lease expiration options to a manually assigned address.

Other DHCP Options: Use this tab to add, delete, update, or specify default DHCP options for a manually assigned address type. Default is used to display DHCP options inherited from global preferences and the Subnet object that the address object is under. For a list of DHCP options and parameter definitions, refer to the Novell® DNS/DHCP Services Administration Guide.
