DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows 
individual clients to obtain TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a server. You can 
configure the ZyXEL Device as a DHCP server or disable it. When configured as a 
server, the ZyXEL Device provides the TCP/IP configuration for the clients. If DHCP 
service is disabled, you must have another DHCP server on your LAN, or else the 
computer must be manually configured.

Click Status > Client List to open the following screen. The read-only DHCP table 
shows current DHCP client information (including IP Address, Host Name and 
MAC Address) of all network clients using the ZyXEL Device’s DHCP server.

This indicates the MAC address of the client computer.
