Using DHCP with FTP Software's OnNet for Windows

MORE INFORMATION

FTP Software's DHCP client does not, by default pass its media access control address to the DHCP server when it request an address. Instead, it passes what FTP Software calls a Client ID. Under their Advance Configuration Options, you can assign a unique Client ID. You can then change network interface cards (NICs) without updating your reservation. If you do not assign a Client ID, one with be generated. It will look similar to the following: To find out the Client ID, let the Client register without a DHCP reservation, and then check the properties of the active least. You can then cut and paste that value into the Unique Identifier field under Add Reservation.
