Static IP addresses configured in MN-700's DHCP

I've just upgraded from an older 802.11b wireless router
to the MN-700.

One thing my old router let me do that was extremly
useful was to configure the router to always give certain
IP addresses to certain MAC address devices, so all the
devices could always stay configured as DHCP, and I would
be able to control their IP address from the admin screen.

Is there any similar mechanism in the MN-700? I'll be
very dissappointed, it seems as though the administration
screens that I've used so far seem much more advanced in
capabiliy than my old router, it would be a shame to be
missing such a basic feature.

That is a little to advanced for the second wireless router released by
Microsoft. Since they announced they are no longer making networking
hardware earlier this year it sounds like they are not going to add any
features to the routers anymore.
