DHCP monitor

The DHCP monitor shows all the addresses leased out by FortiGate's DHCP servers. You can use the monitor to revoke an address for a device, or create, edit, and delete address reservations.

To view the DHCP monitor:

1. Go to Dashboard > Network.
2. Hover over the DHCP widget, and click Expand to Full Screen.

To filter or configure a column in the table, hover over the column heading and click Filter/Configure Column.
