DHCP Snooping VLAN Configuration, Table 87, Field, Description

Page 177 highlights

Software User Manual 12/10/09 D-Link Unified Access System DHCP SNOOPING VLAN CONFIGURATION The DHCP snooping application does not forward server messages because they are forwarded in hardware. DHCP snooping forwards valid DHCP client messages received on non-routing VLANs. The message is forwarded on all trusted interfaces in the VLAN. DHCP snooping can be configured on switching VLANs and routing VLANs. When a DHCP packet is received on a routing VLAN, the DHCP snooping application applies its filtering rules and updates the bindings database. If a client message passes filtering rules, the message is placed into the software forwarding path, where it may be processed by the DHCP relay agent, the local DHCP server, or forwarded as an IP packet. DHCP snooping is disabled globally and on all VLANs by default. Ports are untrusted by default. To access the DHCP Snooping VLAN Configuration page, click LAN > L2 Features > DHCP Snooping > VLAN Configuration in the navigation tree. Figure 102: DHCP Snooping VLAN Configuration Field VLAN ID DHCP Snooping Mode Table 87: DHCP Snooping VLAN Configuration Description Select the VLAN for which information to be displayed or configured for the DHCP snooping application. Enables or disables the DHCP snooping feature on the selected VLAN. The default is Disable. • Click Submit to apply the new configuration and cause the change to take effect. These changes will not be retained across a power cycle unless a Save configuration is performed. DHCP SNOOPING INTERFACE CONFIGURATION The hardware rate limits DHCP packets sent to the CPU from untrusted interfaces to 15 packets per second. There is no hardware rate limiting on trusted interfaces. To prevent DHCP packets from being used as a DoS attack when DHCP snooping is enabled, the snooping application enforces a rate limit for DHCP packets received on untrusted interfaces. DHCP snooping monitors the receive rate on each interface separately. If the receive rate exceeds the configuration limit, DHCP snooping brings down the interface. You must do "no shutdown" on this interface to further work with that port. You can configure both the rate and the burst interval.

DHCP snooping forwards valid DHCP client messages received on non-routing VLANs. The message is forwarded on all
trusted interfaces in the VLAN.
DHCP snooping can be configured on switching VLANs and routing VLANs. When a DHCP packet is received on a routing
VLAN, the DHCP snooping application applies its filtering rules and updates the bindings database. If a client message
passes filtering rules, the message is placed into the software forwarding path, where it may be processed by the DHCP

DHCP snooping is disabled globally and on all VLANs by default. Ports are untrusted by default.
