What is maximum lease time in DHCP server in Cisco WLC

[sharathpk0912]

What is the maximum lease time can set in DHCP server in Cisco WLC 2504. Software version 8.0.115.0.

In document, it says  to set the amount of time from 0 to 65536 seconds. But if I enter the amount more than 65536 is also acceptable, does it work?

In fact, I want to set the maximum lease time in DHCP scope.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your quick response.

I am talking about internal DHCP server.

Since the MAC to IP binding feature is not available on WLC internal DHCP, I am trying to find an alternative solution.

Will it help us to get the same IP address everytime by keeping the maximum lease time in DHCP scope.

Yes, it will assign the same IP if the IP/MAC binding is present in DHCP Allocated lease table or in other words it lease time is not expired.
