Available in user view
Using the
save
command does not save DHCP server lease information. Therefore, when the system
boots up or the
reset dhcp server ip-in-use
command is executed, no lease information will be
available in the configuration file. In this case, the server will deny the request for lease extension from
a client and the client needs to request an IP address again.
DHCP Server Configuration Examples
DHCP networking involves two types:
z
The DHCP server and client are on the same subnet and exchange messages directly.
z
The DHCP server and client are not on the same subnet and they communicate with each other
via a DHCP relay agent.
The DHCP server configuration for the two types is the same.
Static IP Address Assignment Configuration Example
Network requirements
As shown in
, Switch B (DHCP client) and Switch C (BOOTP client) obtain the static IP
address, DNS server address, and gateway address from Switch A (DHCP server).
The client ID of VLAN-interface 2 on Switch B is
3030-3066-2e65-3234-392e-3830-3530-2d56-6c61-6e2d-696e-7465-7266-6163-6532. The MAC
address of VLAN-interface 2 on Switch C is 000f-e249-8050.
