OK I can't seem to get this to work. Im ashamed!!
I have an 827-4V router that connects me to ADSL Internet service. The router is configured to automatically assign IP addresses via DHCP.
I would like my home PC to always have the address of 192.168.0.1 assigned but I can't make this happen.
The relevant config is as follows:
ip dhcp pool HOMEPC
host 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0
hardware-address 0100.105a.ddc5.31
client-name home01
!
ip dhcp pool default
network 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0
dns-server 213.120.62.104 213.120.62.97
default-router 192.168.0.254
If I set my client to have an IP address assigned by DHCP I get the next one in the pool rather than the one I have statically assigned, as follows:
Router#sh ip dhcp bind
Bindings from all pools not associated with VRF:
IP address Client-ID/ Lease expiration Type
Hardware address/
User name
192.168.0.1 0100.105a.ddc5.31 Infinite Manual
192.168.0.2 0100.105a.ddc5.31 Feb 14 2003 06:04 PM Automatic
The reason I want this to work is I plan to statically assign an IP address to my laptop which is set up to get its address from a DHCP server. I want to statically NAT some ports to it without having to input the IP address everytime I bring it back from the office.
Any help gratefully appreciated.
