So the kit still requests a DHCP assigned IP address but the router (DHCP server) always allocates the specified IP address for each bit of kit I've configured this way.

This way I can maintain control of all the IP addresses on my LAN from the a single point (Cisco Router) and this also safe guards against having duplicate static addresses.
