In the IP Address box, type the IP address to assign to the PC or server (choose an IP address
from the router’s LAN subnet, such as 192.168.1.X).

Tip:
If the PC is already present on your network, you can copy its MAC address from the
Attached Devices menu and paste it here.
4.
Click Apply to enter the reserved address into the table.
Note:
The reserved address will not be assigned until the next time the PC contacts the router’s
DHCP server. Reboot the PC or access its IP configuration and force a DHCP release and renew.

1.
Click the button next to the reserved address you want to edit or delete.
