DHCP server in 877w router

[kevintang]

Has any people make it working that configure a DHCP pool to give a fixed IP address to a PC? I have tried a few IOS version. but no luck.

ip dhcp pool kevin-pc

host 192.168.1.100 255.255.255.0

hardware-address 0040.f417.30e6

default-router 192.168.1.1

dns-server 202.27.184.3 202.27.184.5

Are there any restrictions that you have in your network which would prevent giving a static ip on the PC ?

I am home user. Just do not want other people connect to my LAN.

What about turning encryption on. Remember that any other method may prevent them to connect, but not receive your traffic.

Hi Kevin,

You should use the below keyword after entering MAC addr.

host 192.168.1.100 255.255.255.0

hardware-address 0040.f417.30e6 ieee802

Hope this helps

Hi, Raj

I tried put the ieee802 behind the MAC address, but no luck.

Did you got it working in your 877W router?

What's the IOS version?

Regards

Kevin

same problem with 851W can't assign static address.

[nikolay-shopik]

looks like manual binding is broken - look at this for exmaple.

192.168.10.14 000c.29f3.7a70 May 12 2007 10:02 AM Automatic

192.168.10.100 000c.29f3.7a70 Infinite Manual

it's still geting address from dynamic pool and not static

Ho,ho,ho

MY FRIENDS nikolay-shopik got the same problem.

Any Cisco engineer here? Do we get reward to report Cisco bugs?

Actually I do have an 857w and and I can assign static address without a problem:

ip dhcp pool mystatic

host 10.0.97.200 255.255.255.0

client-identifier 0100.0e35.f32c.ac

default-router 10.0.97.1

dns-server 4.2.2.1

Remember that winXP adds a byte "01" in front of the client-identifier, after this byte you have to append the mac-address as above.

Sorry, no reward for finding cisco bugs. If there were, I would be rich now.

Hope this helps, please rate post if it does!
