Notes

To open DHCP, click Start, click Settings, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click DHCP.
Reservation options configured here override option values assigned at either the server or scope levels of configuration.
Locally defined options configured manually at the client override reservation options.

Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
