Monitoring DHCP status

Monitoring DHCP status

For all devices that are using your FortiRecorder appliance's built-in DHCP server, you can display the current DHCP lease status and assigned IP address. This can be useful when:

  • You need to find and block unauthorized devices that are connecting to your network.
  • Camera connections are periodically interrupted because they do not have a DHCP reservation, and therefore their IP address changes.

To view the DHCP lease list, go to Monitor > DHCP Status > DHCP.
