Configures a reservation/manual pool. A reservation/manual pool reserves one IP address for a specific client. This command specifies a unique identifier for the client. The pool for which you configure a client identifier must contain one IP address only. This means that the start and end IP addresses of the pool must be equal. The DHCP server uses the client identifier to recognize the DHCP client and allocates the reserved IP address to the client. Use no client-identifier to clear a specified unique identifier for a DHCP client.
