Command Usage
• DHCP provides a relay mechanism for sending information about the switch
and its DHCP clients to the DHCP server. Known as DHCP Option 82, it
allows compatible DHCP servers to use the information when assigning IP
addresses, or to set other services or policies for clients.
• When the DHCP Snooping Information Option is enabled, the requesting
client (or an intermediate relay agent that has used the information fields to
describe itself) can be identified in the DHCP request packets forwarded by
the switch and in reply packets sent back from the DHCP server by the switch
port to which they are connected rather than just their MAC address. DHCP
client-server exchange messages are then forwarded directly between the
server and client without having to flood them to the entire VLAN.
• DHCP snooping must be enabled on the switch for the DHCP Option 82
information to be inserted into packets.
• Use the ip dhcp snooping information option command (page 4-169) to
specify how to handle DHCP client request packets which already contain
Option 82 information.
