IP is not being assigned to some devices

I am using 600E Firewall, i have configured DHCP server and for authentication i am using MAC Address of the device. Suddenly some of devices are not getting ip addresses from the DHCP server. On the same time rest of devices are getting ip address and everything is working fine. Suppose i have 50 devices and about 45 devices will get the ip instantly and they get connected but rest of the devices will not get the ip address. Please help to overcome this issue

Hello, 

 

Please make sure that those five devices are set to obtain IP from DHCP Server and are not assigned any static IP addresses.

You can find it under network adapter settings.

 

Also make sure that you have specified enough IP address (IP address range) for assignment.

 

Thank you.

Does the DHCP range include at least 50 addresses?

How did you set up a DHCP server on FGT?
