Viewing DHCP Leased Clients
You can view a list of endpoints on the network (identified by MAC address) and
see the IP address assigned to them by the DHCP server. The VLAN of the
endpoint is also displayed.
STEP 1 Choose Networking > LAN > DHCP Leased Clients (LAN).
STEP 2 The list of endpoints is displayed; you cannot edit this list.
Configuring RSTP (Cisco RV180W)
Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) is a network protocol that prevents loops in
the network and dynamically reconfigures which physical links should forward
frames. When RTSP is configured, multiple paths to the root networking node are
created. Backup paths are automatically disabled unless the active path to the root
node is down. If that occurs, a backup path is enabled.
NOTE RSTP is not aware of virtual LANs (VLANs) in a network, so it is not recommended
for use in a network with VLANs.
To configure RTSP:
STEP 1 Choose Networking > LAN > RSTP.
STEP 2 Check Enable to enable RSTP.
