Leases sub-tab

This sub-tab shows information about all addresses (dynamic and reserved) currently leased by the DHCP server configured on the Nodegrid device. The items displayed in the leases table can be customized by selecting options from the "Columns" button, and the column order can be rearranged by dragging-and-dropping the corresponding items in the "Columns" list. Column preferences are stored in a cookie on the user's browser.

Detailed lease information

Clicking on the IP address of an entry on the table shows for the selected entry all of the values that are potentially shown on the main table, including IP Address, Hostname, MAC Address, Reserved, Time left, Lease Expiration, Last Transaction, Vendor Class Identifier, Lease Start, and Client Identifier. The available details may vary depending on factors such as the lease type (dynamic or reserved) and IP protocol (IPv4 or IPv6).

The Return button returns to the main leases table. The Reserve Address button is only shown if the lease is dynamic and the current user has write permission.

Reserving a dynamic lease

When the Reserve Address button is available, clicking it takes the user to a menu similar to Network :: DHCP Server :: <address> :: Hosts :: Add (see "Manage DHCP Server" section), with applicable fields pre-populated with the values from the selected dynamic lease. Clicking Save turns the dynamic lease into a reserved address for that client.
