Changing Group Names in the LAN Groups Database
By default, the LAN Groups are named Group1 through Group8. You can rename these group
names to be more descriptive, such as Engineering or Marketing.
To edit the names of any of the eight available groups:
1. From the LAN Groups tab, click the Edit Group Names link to the right of the tabs. The
Network Database Group Names screen appears.
2. Select the radio button next to any group name to make that name active for editing.
3. Type a new name in the field.
4. Click Apply to save your setting, each time you change a name in the field.
5. Select and edit other group names if desired.
6. Click Apply to save each field change.
Configuring DHCP Address Reservation
A computer (or device) will always receive the same IP address, if you specify a reserved IP
address for the computer (or device) on the LAN (based on the MAC address of the device), each
time it accesses the VPN firewall’s DHCP server. Reserved IP addresses should be assigned to
servers or access points that require permanent IP address settings. The reserved IP address that
you select must be outside of the DHCP Server pool.
To reserve an IP address, manually enter the device in the LAN Groups screen, specifying
Reserved (DHCP Client), as described in “Adding Devices to the LAN Groups Database” on
page 3-8.
