The Hosts page searches DHCP reservations and active leases. It can show related DHCP log lines and delete stale leases when needed.
Open the Hosts page
- Sign in to Powercode Link.
- Select Hosts in the page selector.
You need observability access to search hosts. Deleting leases requires configuration/write access.
Search for a host
Hosts are loaded only after you submit a search.
- Enter a search value in the search box. You can search by:
- IP address
- MAC address
- client ID or DUID
- hostname
- subnet
- reservation identifier
- Select Search.
The page shows counts for matching Reservations and Leases.
Use Refresh results to rerun the current search.
Review reservations and leases
Search results are split into two tables:
- Reservations: configured host reservations.
- Leases: current DHCP leases.
Each row shows the server, address, subnet, identifier, hostname, status, and available actions.
Select a row to open details.
Read host details
The details panel shows:
- DHCP server (
v4orv6). - Address or addresses.
- Subnet.
- Identifier and identifier type.
- Decoded flex-id when available.
- Hostname.
- Lease type/state and expiration for leases.
- Related DHCP log lines.
- Raw DHCP server object.
Related logs are searched by address, MAC/client identifier, and hostname against the matching DHCP log.
Delete a lease
If a stale or incorrect lease must be removed:
- Search for the host.
- Find the lease in the Leases table.
- Select Delete on the row, or select the row and then select Delete lease in the details panel.
- Confirm the browser prompt.
Caution: Deleting a lease removes it from the DHCP server. The client may request a lease again. Do this only when you intend to clear the current lease state.
Reservations cannot be deleted from this page; reservation rows show Logs only.
Troubleshooting
- If no results appear, try a shorter search term, confirm the server (
v4/v6), or verify the host currently has a reservation or lease. - If related logs are empty, the log tail window may not include the event anymore.
- If delete fails, confirm you have the required access and that the DHCP server is reachable.
