ISA570W DHCP Reservation

[Taylan013]

Hi,

All the SOHO routers I have used had a table which shows IP, MAC, Name, etc. In this table, I could easily put a check mark to a check box in a row  that I would like to bind/reserve and IP would be reserved for that specific MAC.

In ISA570W, when I need to reserve/bind an IP to a MAC it asks me to fill out a table in which I have to manually type in the name, IP, and MAC.

1. Is there an easier way?
2. Is there a way to do the reservation for multiple clients at once?
3. If this is the only way, do I need to copy the mac address of each client somewhere and then reserve IPs for each one manually? This method looks very far from user friendly and efficient, unless there is a very logical reason that I cannot think of.

Thanks.

Dear Taylan,

Thank you for reaching The Small Business Support Community.

On these Small Business series devices I only see the "Networking > DHCP Reservations" page to reserve IP addresses for specified devices, identified by their MAC addresses and unfortunately the MAC and IP's must be entered manually, no check mark like the SOHO series.

Please let me know if there is anything I may assist you with and I am sorry about the inconvinience.

Kind regards,
