xStack DES-3800 Series Layer 3 Stackable Fast Ethernet Managed Switch CLI Manual config dhcp pool network_addr Purpose Syntax Description Parameters Restrictions Specifies the network for the DHCP pool. config dhcp pool network_addr Specifies the network for the DHCP pool. The addresses in the network are free to be assigned to the DHCP client.. The prefix length specifies the number of bits that comprise the address prefix. The prefix is an alternative way of specifying the network mask of the client. The prefix length must be preceded by a forward slash (/). When the DHCP server receives a request from the client, the server will automatically find a pool to allocate the address. If the request is relayed to the server by the intermediate device, the server will match the gateway IP address carried in the packet against the network of each DHCP pool. The pool which has the longest match will be selected. If the request packet is not through relay, then the server will match the IP address of the IPIF that received the request packet against the network of each DHCP pool. - Pool's name. - Ip address that DHCP server may assign to clients. Only Administrator or Operator-level users can issue this command.
