Static MAC/IP Mapping

$

I want to be sure I understand how this is working in the DHCP servers on my EdgeRouter POE-5.

 

I assume that what this is doing is "reserving" a specific IP for a specific MAC address within the DHCP pool.  In other words, whenever this MAC address asks for a lease or renews one, the server will dole out this specific IP every time.

 

I can't imagine it means anything else...but it is a bit confusing being worded that way.  Normally I would expect it to say "IP Reservation" or something similar.  Static gets confused with Static IP addressing directly on the client.

 

Thanks for any clarity you can provide.
