(7) Static IP Reservations in MikroTik DHCP Server

Using the DHCP server built into your MikroTik router, you can specify static IP reservations which will always be served to specific devices. This is ideal for adding printers or servers to your network in such a way that their IP address always remains the same. The process is simple, and Robbie will demonstrate how to convert a dynamic IP address to static, and then how to modify it to set it to your own chosen IP address, if desired.

Hi, I already configured my Server, AP, and printer with a Static IP Address with an old router, (no Mikrotik), but Mikrotik Router is not detecting those devices. Do I need to reconfigure those devices with the Mikrotik?

what is webfig? why am I using winbox? I have to go get a windows machine out of a drawer every time I want to make a change. Would much rather use my MACs.
