DHCP Description Field
-
How does one make entries into the "Description" field of the DHCP leases listed under Status=>DHCP Leases? All descriptions of the non-static IPs are blank
-
@ortizat what would be the point of adding a description to a dynamic.. You might call it X something today, but next week it might be some Y thing using that IP..
The description field is just there for you to add a note to your reservation.. Like printer in library or AP in guestroom, TV in kitchen, etc. etc..

Please allow me to re-word my question:
In pfSense on the NetGate 4200S, under Status=>DHCP Leases,
a. what is the purpose or use of the "Description" field?
b. from where is the information obtained?
c. why is this field blank for the leases and non-blank for the static assignments?
-
forgot to add, there's no "edit pencil" icon to allow for entering description information

@ortizat You put it there when you create the reservation/mapping - you can't put a description on a dynamic lease.. Only one you reserved for a specific client..
