Description
This article describes how to see the number of free IPs of an internal DHCP server on a FortiGate.
Scope
FortiGate.
Solution
When FortiGate assigns an IP to a host from the internal DHCP server, it generates an informational log with the ID: 0100026003.
To know how many IPs are left to hand over from the DHCP server-enabled interface,
Under Interface, hover over the DHCP Clients column for any required DHCP server-enabled interface.
It shows Client Count, Remaining Leases, and Total Allowed Leases.
Note.
Client Count: Number of IPs released/DHCP clients for that interface.
Remaining Lease: Number of IPs yet to be leased out/left out for that interface.
Total Allowed Leases: Total number of usable IPs available according to the DHCP range configured for that interface.
