What is MAC Binding and how do I add one?

MAC Binding: MAC-IP Binding allows us to reserve static IP assignment for a client. The maximum supported entries are 32 and this feature is applicable for Local DHCP Scope only. Computers with a specified MAC address can only send and receive information with the associated IP address. To use MAC address binding, you must associate an IP address on the specified interface with a MAC address.

1) Helps reserve IP address for specific client.

2) Reserving an IP address allows us to create policies in the firewall configuration, to prioritize the traffic.
