Introducing the DHCP Snap-In
When you install the DHCP server, the DHCP snap-in is also installed. You can open it by
selecting Administrative Tools DHCP. Figure 2.17 shows the snap-in.
As you can see, the snap-in follows the standard MMC model. The left pane displays
IPv4 and IPv6 sections and which servers are available; you can connect to servers other
than the one to which you're already connected. A Server Options folder contains options
that are specific to a particular DHCP server. Each server contains subordinate items
grouped into folders. Each scope has a folder named after the scope's IP address range.
Within each scope, four subordinate views show you interesting things about the scope,
such as the following:
The Address Pool view shows what the address pool looks like.
The Address Leases view shows one entry for each current lease. Each lease shows the
computer name to which the lease was issued, the corresponding IP address, and the
current lease expiration time.
