Since I didn't see anyplace in Id or MC menus where I could do this, I went into my AirPort Extreme and was able to do it there by reserving an IP address above .199 (upper limit of my DHCP assignments) using the Id's MAC address. I hope this may be helpful for someone else.

Another way to do this is to change the wired configuration using the network manager from the Id menu.
If you have control of the DHCP server, it's generally better to do it there.
