8.8  The STB Vendor ID Screen
Set Top Box (STB) devices with dynamic IP addresses sometimes don’t renew their IP addresses 
before the lease time expires. This could lead to IP address conflicts if the STB continues to use an 
IP address that gets assigned to another device. Use this screen to list the Vendor IDs of connected 
STBs to have the Device automatically create static DHCP entries for them when they request IP 
addresses.
Click Network Setting > Home Networking > STB Vendor ID to open this screen.
