DES-3028 DES-3028P DES-3028G DES-3052 DES-3052P Layer 2 Fast Ethernet Managed Switch DHCP/BOOTP Relay To enable and configure DHCP/BOOTP Relay Global Settings on the Switch, click Administration > DHCP/BOOTP Relay > DHCP/BOOTP Relay Global Settings: DHCP/BOOTP Relay Global Settings Figure 6- 6. DHCP/ BOOTP Relay Global Settings window The following fields can be set: Parameter Description BOOTP Relay State BOOTP Relay Hops Count Limit (1-16) BOOTP Relay Time Threshold (0-65535) This field can be toggled between Enabled and Disabled using the pull-down menu. It is used to enable or disable the DHCP/BOOTP Relay service on the Switch. The default is Disabled This field allows an entry between 1 and 16 to define the maximum number of relay hops DHCP/BOOTP messages can be forwarded across. The default hop count is 4. Allows an entry between 0 and 65535 seconds, and defines the maximum time limit for routing a DHCP/BOOTP packet. If a value of 0 is entered, the Switch will not process the value in the seconds field of the BOOTP or DHCP packet. If a non-zero value is entered, the Switch will use that value, along with the hop count to determine whether to forward a given BOOTP or DHCP packet. DHCP Relay Agent Information Option 82 State This field can be toggled between Enabled and Disabled using the pull-down menu. It is used to enable or disable the DHCP Agent Information Option 82 on the Switch. The default is Disabled. Enabled - When this field is toggled to Enabled the relay agent will insert and remove DHCP relay information (option 82 field) in messages between DHCP servers and clients. When the relay agent receives the DHCP request, it adds the option 82 information, and the IP address of the relay agent (if the relay agent is configured), to the packet. Once the option 82 information has been added to the packet it is sent on to the DHCP server. When the DHCP server receives the packet, if the server is capable of option 82, it can implement policies like restricting the number of IP addresses that can be assigned to a single remote ID or circuit ID. Then the DHCP server echoes the option 82 field in the DHCP reply. The DHCP server unicasts the reply to the back to the relay agent if the request was relayed to the server by the relay agent. The switch verifies that it originally inserted the option 82 data. Finally, the relay agent removes the option 82 field and forwards the packet to the switch port that connects to the DHCP client that sent the DHCP request. Disabled - If the field is toggled to Disabled the relay agent will not insert and remove DHCP relay information (option 82 field) in messages between DHCP servers and clients, and the 35

DHCP/BOOTP Relay Global Settings
Figure 6- 6.
DHCP/
BOOTP Relay Global Settings window
The following fields can be set:
Parameter
Description
35
BOOTP Relay State
This field can be toggled between
Enabled
and
Disabled
using the pull-down menu. It is
used to enable or disable the DHCP/BOOTP Relay service on the Switch. The default is
Disabled
BOOTP Relay Hops
Count Limit (1-16)
This field allows an entry between
1
and
16
to define the maximum number of relay hops
DHCP/BOOTP messages can be forwarded across. The default hop count is
4
.
BOOTP Relay Time
Threshold (0-65535)
Allows an entry between
0
and
65535
seconds, and defines the maximum time limit for
routing a DHCP/BOOTP packet. If a value of 0 is entered, the Switch will not process the
value in the
seconds
field of the BOOTP or DHCP packet. If a non-zero value is entered,
the Switch will use that value, along with the hop count to determine whether to forward a
given BOOTP or DHCP packet.
DHCP Relay Agent
Information Option 82
State
This field can be toggled between
Enabled
and
Disabled
using the pull-down menu. It is
used to enable or disable the DHCP Agent Information Option 82 on the Switch. The default
is
Disabled.
Enabled
– When this field is toggled to
Enabled
the relay agent will insert and remove
DHCP relay information (option 82 field) in messages between DHCP servers and clients.
When the relay agent receives the DHCP request, it adds the option 82 information, and the
IP address of the relay agent (if the relay agent is configured), to the packet. Once the
option 82 information has been added to the packet it is sent on to the DHCP server. When
the DHCP server receives the packet, if the server is capable of option 82, it can implement
policies like restricting the number of IP addresses that can be assigned to a single remote
ID or circuit ID. Then the DHCP server echoes the option 82 field in the DHCP reply. The
DHCP server unicasts the reply to the back to the relay agent if the request was relayed to
the server by the relay agent. The switch verifies that it originally inserted the option 82
data. Finally, the relay agent removes the option 82 field and forwards the packet to the
switch port that connects to the DHCP client that sent the DHCP request.
Disabled -
If the field is toggled to
Disabled
the relay agent will not insert and remove DHCP
relay information (option 82 field) in messages between DHCP servers and clients, and the
