DHCP client configuration
The Branch Gateway can be configured to function as a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol) client.
DHCP client enables the Branch Gateway to receive an IP address from a DHCP server,
according to the DHCP client-server protocol. The DHCP server grants the Branch Gateway
DHCP client an IP address for a fixed amount of time, called the lease. After the lease expires,
the Branch Gateway DHCP client is required to stop using the IP address. The Branch Gateway
DHCP client periodically sends requests to the server to renew or extend the lease.
In addition to receiving an IP address, an Branch Gateway DHCP client can optionally request
to receive a domain name, a list of default routers, and a list of available DNS servers.
Note:
The Branch Gateway can function as both a DHCP server and a DHCP client
simultaneously. That is, you can connect a cable modem for an Internet connection to the
WAN Fast Ethernet in order to use the Branch Gateway as a DHCP client. At the same time,
you can activate the DHCP server on the Branch Gateway for use by clients, such as, IP
phones and PCs connected to the LAN ports. The DHCP server on the Branch Gateway
does
not
serve Internet devices connected over the WAN Fast Ethernet ports. For
information on configuring the Branch Gateway as a DHCP server, see
on
page 447.
Note:
The DHCP client only supports IPv4.
