		 |  |  |   Modify AddressThe Address Properties dialog box lets you view and modify the settings for
an address in the current DHCP network table on the selected DHCP server.
 
	
	| To modify 
	several addresses at once, select the addresses in the View Addresses main window, 
	and then choose Properties from the Edit menu to display the Modify Multiple Addresses dialog box. |  The settings in the Address Properties dialog box are described below. 
 
 
	 
	
	| IP Address | Specify the IP address to make available to new
	DHCP clients. The new address must be unique in the current DHCP network table. |  
	| Client Name (optional) | Specify the host name of the client. If you use this option, the DHCP Manager will
attempt to create an entry in the hosts
table. |  
	| Owned By Server | Specify the IP address of the DHCP server 
	that owns the new IP address. This server is 
	responsible for initially responding to the DHCP client's request for 
	IP address allocation. |  
	| Configuration Macro | Specify an optional macro for the server to 
	use to obtain client configuration parameters from the dhcptab. Click the arrow to see a list of macros available on the 
	server. If the macro you want to specify does not already exist on the server, you
	can create it, using the Create Macro
	dialog box. |  
	| Comment (optional) | Enter an optional text comment. |  
 
	
Click Lease to configure the setting for lease status and expiration.
The following settings are available.
	 
	
	
	| Client ID | A unique indentifier of the DHCP or BOOTP client using this address. The client ID is determined by the vendor of the DHCP client. For non-Solaris DHCP clients, consult your DHCP client documentation for more information.  For Solaris DHCP clients, the client ID is a string created by the concatenation of the network hardware type and the client's hardware address. For example, a client with a hardware type of 01 (10-Mb Ethernet) and a hardware address of 8:0:20:11:12:b7 would have a client ID of 010800201112B7.
 
	An entry with a Client ID value of 00 indicates that the address is
	freely available for dynamic allocation to a requesting client. 
	 |  
	| Reserved | The address is reserved for this client and cannot be reclaimed 
	by the server. |  
	| Lease Policy | Dynamic: The DHCP server is responsible for the allocation 
	and re-allocation of this range of IP addresses. 
	Enter the expiration time of the lease. You can specify an
	expiration date for the lease in mm/dd/yyyy format. 
	
	Permanent: The lease does not expire.
	 |  
	| Assign Only to BOOTP Clients | The selected IP address is reserved for 
	BOOTP clients. |  
	| Address is Unusable | This IP address cannot be used. You can use this setting together with Reserved to prevent a client from booting. |   return to top |
