Configuring The Dhcp Server To Send Bootp Responses In Rfc 1048 Format; Setting The Dscp Value For Dhcp Packets Sent By The Dhcp Server; Displaying And Maintaining The Dhcp Server - HP 6125XLG Layer 3-Ip Services Configuration Manual

Step
2. Configure the DHCP server to
ignore BOOTP requests.
Configuring the DHCP server to send BOOTP responses in RFC
1048 format
Not all BOOTP clients can send requests that are compatible with RFC 1048. By default, the DHCP server
does not process the Vend field of RFC 1048-incompliant requests but copies the Vend field into
responses.
This function enables the DHCP server to fill in the Vend field using the RFC 1048-compliant format in
DHCP responses to RFC 1048-incompliant requests sent by BOOTP clients that request statically bound
addresses.
To configure the DHCP server to send BOOTP responses in RFC 1048 format:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable the DHCP server to send BOOTP
responses in RFC 1048 format to the RFC
1048-incompliant BOOTP requests for
statically bound addresses.
Setting the DSCP value for DHCP packets sent by
the DHCP server
The DSCP value of a packet specifies the priority level of the packet and affects the transmission priority
of the packet.
To set the DSCP value for DHCP packets sent by the DHCP server:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Set the DSCP value for DHCP
packets sent by the DHCP
server.

Displaying and maintaining the DHCP server

IMPORTANT:
A restart of the DHCP server or execution of the reset dhcp server ip-in-use command deletes all lease
information. The DHCP server denies any DHCP request for lease extension, and the client must request an
IP address again.

By default, the DHCP server
directly copies the Vend field of
such requests into the responses.
Remarks
N/A
By default, the DSCP value in DHCP
packets sent by the DHCP server is 56.
