CHAPTER 33 DHCP This chapter shows you how to configure the DHCP feature. 33.1 DHCP Overview DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows individual computers to obtain TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a server. You can configure the Switch as a DHCP server or a DHCP relay agent. When configured as a server, the Switch provides the TCP/IP configuration for the clients. If you configure the Switch as a relay agent, then the Switch forwards DHCP requests to DHCP server on your network. If you don't configure the Switch as a DHCP server or relay agent then you must have a DHCP server in the broadcast domain of the client computers or else the client computers must be configured manually. 33.1.1 DHCP Modes The Switch can be configured as a DHCP server or DHCP relay agent. • If you configure the Switch as a DHCP server, it will maintain the pool of IP addresses along with subnet masks, DNS server and default gateway information and distribute them to your LAN computers. • If there is already a DHCP server on your network, then you can configure the Switch as a DHCP relay agent. When the Switch receives a request from a computer on your network, it contacts the DHCP server for the necessary IP information, and then relays the assigned information back to the computer. 33.1.2 DHCP Configuration Options The DHCP configuration on the Switch is divided into Global and VLAN screens. The screen you should use for configuration depends on the DHCP services you want to offer the DHCP clients on your network. Choose the configuration screen based on the following criteria: • Global - The Switch forwards all DHCP requests to the same DHCP server. • VLAN - The Switch is configured on a VLAN by VLAN basis. The Switch can be configured as a DHCP server for one VLAN and at the same time the Switch can be configured to relay DHCP requests for clients in another VLAN. ES-4124 User's Guide 265

DHCP

This chapter shows you how to configure the DHCP feature.

33.1

DHCP Overview

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows individual

computers to obtain TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a server. You can configure the

Switch as a DHCP server or a DHCP relay agent. When configured as a server, the Switch

provides the TCP/IP configuration for the clients. If you configure the Switch as a relay agent,

then the Switch forwards DHCP requests to DHCP server on your network. If you don’t

configure the Switch as a DHCP server or relay agent then you must have a DHCP server in

the broadcast domain of the client computers or else the client computers must be configured

manually.

33.1.1

DHCP Modes

The Switch can be configured as a DHCP server or DHCP relay agent.

•

If you configure the Switch as a DHCP server, it will maintain the pool of IP addresses

along with subnet masks, DNS server and default gateway information and distribute them

to your LAN computers.

•

If there is already a DHCP server on your network, then you can configure the Switch as a

DHCP relay agent. When the Switch receives a request from a computer on your network,

it contacts the DHCP server for the necessary IP information, and then relays the assigned

information back to the computer.

33.1.2

DHCP Configuration Options

The DHCP configuration on the Switch is divided into

Global

and

VLAN

screens. The screen

you should use for configuration depends on the DHCP services you want to offer the DHCP

clients on your network. Choose the configuration screen based on the following criteria:

•

Global

- The Switch forwards all DHCP requests to the same DHCP server.

•

VLAN

- The Switch is configured on a VLAN by VLAN basis. The Switch can be

configured as a DHCP server for one VLAN and at the same time the Switch can be

configured to relay DHCP requests for clients in another VLAN.
