networking - What does static DHCP mean? Static Dynamic is confusing


I've found some home wireless routers/ADSL+ modems (ZyXEL 660) talking about Static DHCP, when refering to assosiating a specific MAC to an IP, but still serve the configuration over DHCP.


Doesn't this have another name? What does Cisco call this feature (that I know supports because I've used long time ago)?



Answer



A DCHP reservation. Cisco refers to it as "Static DHCP".


More information here. (CTRL-F for "static allocation").
