Item Description
Dormant DHCP Reservation It is used to delete reserved IP addresses that are inactive for specific days. The inactive means that a reserved IP address is not assigned because the host that has the MAC address of the reserved IP address did not request it. We called it "Dormant DHCP Reservation".
DHCP Failover Deadtime It is the time in seconds to provide DHCP service for specific DHCP pools in a DHCP passive system.

If the passive system does not receive any response from an active system for this time, the passive system begins DHCP service for DHCP pools that was served by the active system.

Random Assignment If it is enabled, a DHCP service assigns IP addresses in random order. If not, a DHCP service sequentially assigns.
DHCPv6 Reconfig Key It is used to making DHCPv6 Reconfigure Message. only ASCII text strings are allowed.[1][2]
RADIUS User-Name Reservation It enables a host is assigned an IP address based on the User-Name of the RADIUS attribute. The details are explained in the DHCP Pool configuration.

  2. Although the DHCPv6 Reconfigure Message is a standard DHCPv6 option, many operating systems do not support this option for some security issues.
