Description

After defining a static mapping without an IP address, the DHCP lease page will display two entries for that MAC address. One entry will include the IP address, while the other will not have an assigned address.

Steps to duplicate:

1. Go to *Services/DHCP Server/ LAN*
2. At the bottom of the screen click on the *Add Static Mapping* button.
3. On the static mapping page, paste the MAC address of your *test client* connected to the LAN interface and leave all other fields as-is. *Save/Apply Changes*
4. Renew the DHCP lease on your *test client*. 
5. Go to *Status/DHCP Leases* and locate the duplicate entry for the test client's MAC address.

  • Status changed from New to Not a Bug

Entries with a MAC address but not an IP address are valid. They define entries for "Deny Unknown Clients" which can still pull their addresses randomly from the pool.
