If you administrate more cities or villages, you can use the names of specific cities and villages. If you administrate only a few cities, you can use names of city districts. If your network is very extensive, it is more suitable to select distribution of locations into districts or regions. With this distribution you will significantly make more clear displaying of routers in individual system screens. It is also possible to filter records and client according to this division. For example: bulk email and SMS. |

IP address is then linked to MAC address and locked. |
| Client IP address | IP address under which the client is stored in the system, i.e. routerboard wlan interface address (routed network) or wi-fi PCI card address (bridged network). ISPadmin automatically offers the first free IP within address range on a given router. When client´s IP address is filled in, it is then entered into Mikrotik. Failing which IP address from DHCP pool is used by Mikrotik. Framed-IP-Address attribute is created. Click on to display IP ranges table where you can see gate address, addresses used for routers, clients etc. You can select either Private or Public IP from the offered IP address. |

If MAC address is not entered, the system will try to find it automatically. Every hour, the system checks ARP table of all routers and if IP address is found, it will automatically fill MAC address in, too. Information on detected MAC address is available in Statistics History, MAC addresses. |
| IP address of end device | IP address of end device is to be entered only if a client has HW equipment which works in bridge mode. This means that the client has 2 IP addresses. This is the address of the end device (CPE) provided by an ISP which, for instance, serves for reception of WiFi signal, and it is located on an antenna pole.

With this distribution you will significantly make more clear displaying of routers in individual system screens. It is also possible to filter records and client according to this division. For example: bulk email and SMS. |

In this case, ISPadmin enables the client in firewall and when the client is connected, it will read his MAC address from ARP table, and stores it. IP address is then linked to MAC address and locked. |
| Client IP address | IP address under which the client is stored in the system, i.e. routerboard wlan interface address (routed network) or wi-fi PCI card address (bridged network). ISPadmin automatically offers the first free IP within address range on a given router. When client´s IP address is filled in, it is then entered into Mikrotik.

| MAC address of the end device | Physical address of a bridge. MAC address of end device is to be entered only if a client has HW equipment (CPE) provided by an ISP which works in bridge mode. If MAC address is not entered, the system will try to find it automatically. Every hour, the system checks ARP table of all routers and if IP address is found, it will automatically fill MAC address in, too. Information on detected MAC address is available in Statistics History, MAC addresses. |
| IP address of end device | IP address of end device is to be entered only if a client has HW equipment which works in bridge mode. This means that the client has 2 IP addresses.

The IP address serves for accessing this device and for its management. Free IP addresses are displayed. Click on an IP addresses to select it.
