DHCP

General #

DHCP provisions all guest devices with an IP and gateway address, DNS server and additional options needed to onboard a client device to the guest network and provide a working internet connection.

Besides the usual Dynamic and Static Leases the DHCP server also offers custom DHCP Options.

Static Leases #

Static DHCP Leases can be added manually by filling out the Form on the bottom of the DHCP Page or by clicking on the checkbox of a device in the Visible Devices Table.
Devices added as a Static Autologin Device will also appear in the Static Leases Table of the DHCP Page.

Dynamic Leases #

Dynamic DHCP Leases are assigned automatically as clients connect to the Surf-LAN Interface of the IACBOX.
Devices added as Dynamic Autologin Device will also appear in the Dynamic Leases Table of the DHCP Page.

Ranges #

It is possible to define a DHCP Exclude Range in case certain ranges should not be offered to Surf-LAN clients.

Options #

In some cases it is preferable or necessary to add DHCP Options.
There is a wide range of Options available that can be assigned to a scope:

• Global Scope: Applies to all DHCP wherever applicable.
• Network Scope: Applies to DHCP on the Surf-LAN interface and on a VLAN basis.
• Host Scope: Applies to DHCP on a single host.
