D-Link DES-3326S Layer 3 Switch DHCP, BOOTP and DNS Relay Use DHCP/BOOTP and DNS Relay configuration to allow the Switch to relay DHCP/BOOTP and DNS information packets to hosts that request them from sources outside the interface on which they reside. Figure 17- 6. DHCP/BOOTP Relay The BOOTP Relay Information menu is used to enable BOOTP Relay and configure hops and time limit. Set the relay configuration as desired and click on the Apply button. These settings will be applied to all BOOTP/DHCP relays regardless of the destination or source. The following fields can be set: Parameter Description BOOTP/DHCP Relay Status BOOTP HOPS Count Limit [4 ] BOOTP/DHCP Relay Time Threshold [0 ] This field can be toggled between Enabled and Disabled using the pull-down menu. It is used to enable or disable the BOOTP/DHCP Relay service on the switch. The default is Disabled This field allows an entry between 1 and 16 to define the maximum number of router hops 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 BOOTP/DHCP 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. 129

D-Link DES-3326S Layer 3 Switch
DHCP, BOOTP and DNS Relay
Use DHCP/BOOTP and DNS Relay configuration to allow the Switch to relay DHCP/BOOTP and DNS information packets
to hosts that request them from sources outside the interface on which they reside.
Figure 17- 6. DHCP/BOOTP Relay
The BOOTP Relay Information menu is used to enable BOOTP Relay and configure hops and time limit. Set the relay
configuration as desired and click on the
Apply
button. These settings will be applied to all BOOTP/DHCP relays regardless
of the destination or source.
The following fields can be set:
Parameter
Description
BOOTP/DHCP Relay Status <
Disabled
>
This field can be toggled between
Enabled
and
Disabled
using
the pull-down menu.
It is used to enable or disable the
BOOTP/DHCP Relay service on the switch. The default is
Disabled
BOOTP HOPS Count Limit
[
4
]
This field allows an entry between
1
and
16
to define the
maximum number of router hops BOOTP messages can be
forwarded across. The default hop count is
4
.
BOOTP/DHCP Relay Time Threshold [
0
]
Allows an entry between
0
and
65535
seconds, and defines the
maximum time limit for routing a BOOTP/DHCP 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.
