New LAN port not getting ip address from DHCP

jang430

Hello.  I want to use 1 of the excess LAN ports on the firewall to give out ip address of 192.168.88.x to the pc connected to it.  Currently, my firewall gives out ip address in the 192.168.1.x range.  

I first selected the port, assigned it to the LAN, and gave it an IP address of 192.168.88.1.  I then proceeded to DHCP, and created a DHCP.  The interface I selected is the port.  

When I plug in a pc to the port, it shows the port as connected, but the pc won't get any IP address.

    Sounds like the pc might have a fixed address?

      I was doubting my steps.  When you replied it might be static, I went back to check.  Indeed, you were right.  As soon as I chose obtain, everything was working.  Thank you!
