How-to: Check DHCP clients on the LAN ports??

Hi,
I can manage the DHCP clients on the wifi. But not on the LAN.
Can anyone let me know where in the AirPort Utility?
regards,

I have more info on this topic as I'm an interested party and would LOVE to see this work right one day....
The clients pop-up window does show physically connected clients and wireless clients, as well as clients physically connected to wireless bridges (check). Most of them. I have two wireless bridges with manually assigned ips outside the DHCP range and no port filtering. Only one of them shows up in this list, and I'm not sure why it does (not DHCP but has a reservation). Also - my linux host shows up, but the VM running inside it does not. Perhaps the virtual bridged adapter is confusing somebody up in the sealed time capsule but they get unique ip addys and are all accessible so the server must be seeing unique MACs (not to be confused with Macs)
I think it was a good try to provide a client view, its just buggy and feature weak.
I'm actually considering scrapping the airport as a router altogether - it doesn't even do local dns if you happen to have alot of clients on your home network, nor does it really support a separate local dns server because you cant tell DHCP what to send your clients. They decide for you so you dont fall down and bump your knee. Meh. And please - dont recommend I use Bonjour to Resolve Names on a Network...we run more than OSX here the whole world uses DNS and we should be able to too..

  • How to setup default gateway in a DHCP client. The default gateway will be the Ip address of the server that has RRAS installed, hence routing cabalities.

    How to setup default gateway in a DHCP client. The default gateway will be the Ip address of the server that has RRAS installed, hence routing cabalities.

    Hi Bill,
    Thank you for replying back...Yes, I was actually asking how do you set the default gateway address on the DHCP server?,
    I believe I got the answer below:
    To configure the DHCP default gateway option Click Start, point to Administrative Tools and then click DHCP. In the console tree, expand the applicable DHCP server, expand IPv4, and then right-click Scope Options Click Configure Options, check 003
    Router, type the applicable Server name and IP address, and then click OK.
    Thank you

  • RMI - NAT - Client within the LAN and outside the LAN

    I'm having an RMI server in a machine within a LAN with the private IP 10.XX.XX.XX and a NAT with the public IP 196.XX.XX.XX.
    I am using the property: java.rmi.server.hostname to 196.XX.XX.XX. The server is behind a NAT machine.
    Everything works fine when the client is outside the LAN, but when the client is within the LAN it fails to lookup the server (of course it would work fine if I ommit the java.rmi.server.hostname property or set it to the server IP, but then I cannot work with a client outside the LAN).
    To conclude, my question is how I can work with both clients simultaneously (one within the LAN and one outside the LAN)?

    Most firewalls block access from inside the network to the external IP address (10.x.x.x to 196.x.x.x) as this approach could also be used by an attacker masquerading as a local network computer.
    You're going to need to make sure that all your Internal computers do not go via your firewall to get to the server.
    You can either add a route to the server on the Internal client machines overriding the default routing table or you can use your public domain name instead of the IP address. Then change your internal DNS configuration (if you use one) to point internal users to the local IP address instead.

    Hi,
    Can someone tell, how to check who has approved the PO or PR?
    Regards.

    Go to PO display ME23N go to enviornment data and see for header changes here you can see the person who has release the PO at what dat with time, user id and T-code used for release.
    Else if version management is activated in your client then check at the version tab at the header level of PO here also you will find the required details.
    For PR you can check the item details.

  • How to check data type of the field symbol at run time

    Hi,
    My code is as following:

    assign sname to  <f_zzname>.
    describe  field <f_zzname> type typ.

  • Equium M50 will not recognise the LAN port - error: Network Cable unplugged

    I own a Toshiba Equium M50 and have problems with the Marvell Yukon 88E8036 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller.
    I used to connect via an 'ADDON' Modem/ADSL Switch and had no problems. I then replaced the ADDON with a 'NETGEAR' DG834G ADSL Modem/Router to gain the wireless port, and since then my machine will not recognise the LAN port. <error: Network Cable unplugged>.
    I know that the cables are OK as I used them with other laptops and had no trouble. I can also plug in a PCI card to connect without any problems. It looks to me as if the Marvell Yukon 88E8036 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller has a problem with the netgear Modem/Router.
    Anyone out there with a similar experience and some advice/suggestions?
    PLEASE

    Hi
    For me it doesnt show like a LAN card problem but your router is a problem.
    Check the device manager if the LAN card was properly recognized. If there are no yellow exclamation marks so everything is ok!
    You can try to delete the LAN card from the device manager and after new reboot install the LAN driver again.
    The issue has stared after installing or connecting the new Netgear modem router.
    Therefore I would recommend to checking firstly the settings or to update the firmware on this router.

  • Can I use the LAN port out of the network?

    I just bought an Express to use with a neighbor. They have a desk top PC and a DSL modem. If we plug the modem into the extreme, can I just plug his PC into the LAN Port without having to configure it to the Extreme (we don't want to create a linked network, we just need the signal to pass through like a router)? Ideally, this is what I want, for them to not have anything to deal with, just me setting up my own laptop and leaving their system be.
    Will our computers be linked at all if the wireless aspect of it is only being used for my g4 ibook?

    cactus101, Welcome to the discussion area!
    You mention Express and Extreme. I'm going to assume that you are connecting the PC to the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS).
    Yes you can plug the PC into the AEBS's LAN port. The PC will be configured to use Ethernet and DHCP to get an IP address. The PC doesn't won't even know that the AEBS exists. It will only know that a router exists and it is connected via Ethernet.Will our computers be linked at all if the wireless aspect of it is only being used for my g4 ibook?Yes they will be on the same network subnet.

  • Does the LAN port really work for wired internet?

    Ok. So I've seen this question asked, but nobody ever seems to come back and say "great, it worked!". If I have my AEBS connected to my DSL modem via the WAN port, Set up with my PPPOE info and set to distribute IP addressess and WDS on, can it also distribute to my desktop via the LAN port. I've seen many yeses, but I can't get it to work. The iMac also has an Airport card, and both it and my MAcBook can get to the internet fine. Also, if I set up the iMac for ethernet and connect it directly to the DSL modem (with the PPOE info in the iMac), it can also connect no problem. However, if I set the iMac up for ethernet and to get it's info via DHCP, and connect it to the AEBS LAN port, it doesn't even show an ethernet cable is connected. This leads me to believe that the LAN port is disabled in whatever config I have going with the AEBS. Any help would be great. Thanks.

    FYI, after further testing, it appears my port is loose? If I hold the cable and press firmly into the LAN port, I get a connection. if I let go of the cable, I lose it. So, if I bend the cable under the unit and scotch tape it in place... no problem. It is a refurb unit. Oh well.

  • How to enable "Jumbo Frame" at RV320 LAN ports?

    I'm sorry about my silly question, where is the option to turn on the "Jumbo Frame" or allow to adjust MTU at the RV320 LAN ports?
    I can't found that in the Web management interface, will it just take the 9Kb MTU packet and no need to set?
    Looks like the MTU settings is only available at those internet ports or USB interface.

    Hello,
    You won't find any LAN side MTU settings on any of the small business routers.  The LAN ports are simply layer 2 switch ports, which means they will either forward or drop the larger packets. They have to be gigabit ports as well, Jumbo Frames do not work with anything less. Unfortunately I cannot find anything specific to this model, and I am unable to test it since I don't have any Jumbo capable NICs. 
    So your best bet is really to just give it a try.  The switch ports on the router will either forward or drop the packets, and anyone going out to the internet will either lower their packet size using MTU discovery, or the router will fragment the packets down to a size appropriate for the WAN link.
    I wish I could be more specific, but without being able to test it that is the most info I can give you right now.
    Let me know how it goes,

  • Can I use the LAN port of my Airport Express, which is being used to extend my wi-fi network from my Time Capsule?

    I have a home wi-fi network based on a Time Capsule (3rd Gen.).  I recently added a new "n" Airport Express to extend my wi-fi coverage to areas of my home where the signal has been weak or non-existant.  The setup went very well (Airport Utility 6 on my MacBook Pro running Mtn. Lion) and was extremely simple and trouble free.  Now I am attempting ot plug an ethernet device (internet bridge reciver from a wirelss weather station) into the LAN port.  The weather station instructions say the device should communicate fine plugged directly into my router (not physically available where the device needs to be) OR plugged into a LAN port of an ethernet hub.  My question is then:  with the Airport Express in wi-fi extend mode, is the LAN port available to cable internet devices into the network?

    My question is then:  with the Airport Express in wi-fi extend mode, is the LAN port available to cable internet devices into the network?
    Yes, assuming that the setup went correctly.
    Test by moving your laptop or other computer close to the AirPort Express. Temporarily, turn off the wireless on the laptop and connect it using a spare Ethernet cable to the LAN port on the Express.
    See if you can get an Internet connection. If you can, you know the Express has been configured and is functioning correctly.
    Since the Express is in bridge mode when it "extends" both ports become LAN ports, so if you have a second device that needs an Ethernet connection, connect it to the WAN port as it will work as well.

  • Recently bought airport Extreme and have connected the device to the modem. WIFI works. However when I connect the LAN port to a switch I do not see the LAN printer and my NAS. Which setting do I miss?

    I have installed my Airport Extreme and have conencted it directly to a modem. WIFI works fine. However I do not see my LAN network (printer. NAS,..).
    Analysis:
    Scen#1: When I connect the LAN port of the Airport Extreme to a switch (as input) and connect the other LAN devices also to the switch, those LAN devices do not have access to the internet. Also connecting the iPAD with WIFI to the Airport Extreme I cannot find my LAN printer and other devices.
    Scen#2: When I connect the LAN port of the Airport Extreme to a router X (as input) and connect the router X to the same switch, and the LAN devices to the switch, those LAN devices do have access to the internet. Also connecting the iPAD with WIFI to the router X I can find my LAN printer and other devices in the LAN network.
    Question what has impacted the behaviour of the Airport Extreme, not to detect the devices in the LAN network. Why is the use of a switch directly behind the Airport Extreme not working (no internet access for the other devices and Airport Extreme is not the basis station for the LAN network)?

    Your scenario #1 is a correct configuration and should work. It seems as though your Extreme is not acting as a router as I believe you intend.
    Most likely, you need to reset your modem. Power it down and let it rest for a few moments. Some need longer than others. Then, I recommend you "hard reset" your Extreme (see below) and configure it again, after the modem has been reset. From then on do not change what is connected to your modem without powering it down first.
    Once configured, confirm your Extreme's wireless network works as expected and that your iPad and every other wireless device can load web pages. Then, connect the printer directly to one of the Extreme's LAN ports and confirm that it works as well. After that it should work equally well with a switch between it and the Extreme, as should every other wired device connected to the switch. This assumes your switch is an unmanaged device requiring no specific configuration.
    Scenario #2: Having a router connected downstream of another is not a normal configuration, so don't pursue that as a solution. It will only distract you from determining the problem. If you want to repurpose Router X as another device do so only after everything else is working to your satisfaction.
    To "hard reset" an AirPort Base Station: make sure it's powered up, then press and hold its tiny reset button and keep it depressed for five to ten seconds, long enough for its LED to flash amber rapidly. Release the reset button. Then, the LED will glow amber steadily for about a minute. Then, it will flash amber, slowly, about once every second or two, waiting for you to configure it with AirPort Utility.

  • When using an airport extreme to extend a wireless modern, will the lan ports work?

    When using an airport extreme to extend a wireless modern, will the lAN ports work?

    The AirPort Extreme can extend the wireless signal from another Apple wireless router. When it does, the Ethernet ports on the extending AirPort router are enabled.
    Apple's "extend" feature appears to be a proprietary Apple function, so it would be extremely unlikely that an AirPort Extreme...or any other Apple router....could extend a 3rd party router product wirelessly....if that is really what you are asking here.

  • Using Extreme in Bridge mode, can't see the DHCP clients if the D-Link router

    I have an Airport Extreme attached to my DLink modem/router.  I have configured the Airport Extreme in Bridge mode, and I was expecting all clients to show up in my D-Link router.  Although the configuration works most of the time, I have been experience a few issues:
    1.  From time to time, computers attached (both Windows and/or Mac) complain about an IP address conflict.  I can ignore the error and it works fine.
    2. From time to time, I loose Internet connectivity, and I need to disconnect my computer and reconnect again to solve the issue.  This is not necessarily linked to symptom #1
    3. On my D-Link router/modem (which I only use to connect my Airport to my ISP), if I check the DHCP clients, I can see the Airport router connected and *some* of the wireless clients that connect through the Airport.  The list changes quite randomly, and at times, I see the airport appearing twice with different IP addresses.
    Any help configuring it "right" will be appreciated!
    Alain

    When the AirPort Extreme is in bridge mode, the AirPort Extreme is simply passing through the DHCP settings and services that are handled by the D-Link modem/router.
    In other words, the D-Link device is in total charge of the DHCP services for devices on the network.
    You might want to check with D-Link support to see if they have any recommended practices for configuing the modem/router when another router....the AirPort Extreme in this case....is being used in bridge mode on the network

  • How to configure dhcp client identifier

    Hi Everybody,
    The DHCP client ID is an id that is unique for DHCP clients at least in the same subnet. Usually the client uses MAC-address as Client-Identifier in the DHCPDISCOVER message. The Client-Identifier may be different other than MAC-Address, For example a FQDN name, as per the RFC 2132 Ref, (code 61).+_
    Usaually, we use the following to bind the ip address based on MAC-address
    pntadm -r SUNWfiles -p /var/dhcp -A 10.42.32.86 -i '0:3:ba:a5:a9:93' -a 10.42.32.80
    At server side, I am using the following for specifying the FQDN name.
    pntadm -r SUNWfiles -p /var/dhcp -A 10.42.32.86 -i 'one.atr.com' -a 10.42.32.80
    and at client side, I am inserting the following entry in the /etc/default/dhcpagent file
    CLIENT_ID='one.atr.com'
    But this is not working. What I am doing wrong.
    +1. At the server side, then how to assign the ip addresses to the clients , if the Client-Identifier is FQDN name in the DHCPDISCOVER message other than MAC-Address.+
    +2. How to configure the client-identifier as FQDN name at client side.+
    Please help me,
    Thanks Inadvance,
    Mummaneni.

    Sandman,
    Here is an example of a router acting as a DHCP server. Please remember that you have to exclude IP addresses that you don't want to lease out.
    ip dhcp pool example
    import all
    network 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0
    dns-server 1.2.3.4
    default-router 192.168.1.1
