BT Business Hub 3 - Static IP Address Anomaly, DHCP Table Problem & Port 161

Hi Everyone

As suggested by the subject line, I have three problems.

Static IP Addresses - The expectation I have with having multiple external IP addresses is to be able to forward the relevant ports to the internal IP addresses as needed. It turns out that the BH3 assigns the external IP address to the internal device and this address becomes both the internal and external IP address. From what I have found so far, you cannot port-forward from one of the external addresses to an internal address. Can anyone advise where I'm going wrong?

DHCP Table - It shows only the allocated IP addresses for connected equipment. I have had a network device fail and the failed device was assigned a static IP address on the DHCP server. I cannot allocate the IP address to the new item of equipment as I get an error message warning of an IP clash. I cannot view the complete table to delete the old allocation. Not sure how I can do this short of resetting the hub to factory and manually resetting everything; does anyone have a better way of doing this?

Port 161 - An SNMP Port, regardless of what I do, I cannot stealth this port.

Many thanks in advance, John.
