Abstract: A method for binding an address of a user terminal in an access equipment includes the following steps. The user terminal requests a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server via the access equipment to assign an IP address, and the access equipment receives a response message from the DHCP server during the process in which the DHCP server assigns the IP address to the user terminal. The access equipment binds the address of the user terminal with a corresponding port of the access equipment according to the address information and the port information in the response message. By using the scheme of the invention, the access equipment may use the access information and the corresponding port information, which is obtained when the user terminal requests to assign the IP address for implementing binding the address of the user terminal and managing the user terminal effectively and expediently.
