The hardware identifies all incoming DHCP packets on ports where DHCP snooping is enabled. DHCP snooping is enabled on a port if (a) DHCP snooping is enabled globally, and (b) the port is a member of a VLAN where DHCP snooping is enabled. On untrusted ports, the hardware traps all incoming DHCP packets to the CPU. On trusted ports, the hardware forwards client messages and copies server messages to the CPU so that DHCP snooping can learn the binding. Table 7-64.
