When the DHCP pool is created, the IP addresses in the IP pool are registered with the name server and host names are generated for these IP addresses. Start by selecting the DNS domain to which the new host names should be added.
Then specify a designation for this address pool. Select any name of your liking and enter it in the field Notation.
The character string entered for the host names in the field Prefix for Host Names is used for generating the host names:
The address space ranges from 192.168.1.10 to 192.168.1.29, the prefix is dhcpPC-, and the selected DNS domain is company.com. In this example, the following host names and IP addresses are generated and registered with the name server:Enter the desired address space in the IP Address Range fields.
dhcpPC-01.company.com -> 192.168.1.10 dhcpPC-02.company.com -> 192.168.1.11 dhcpPC-03.company.com -> 192.168.1.12 ... ... ... dhcpPC-18.company.com -> 192.168.1.27 dhcpPC-19.company.com -> 192.168.1.28 dhcpPC-20.company.com -> 192.168.1.29
