Option 82 on the Switch. The default is Disabled.
Enabled –When this field is toggled to Enabled, the relay agent will insert and remove
DHCP relay information (Option 82 field) in messages between DHCP servers and
clients. When the relay agent receives the DHCP request, it adds the Option 82
information, and the IP address of the relay agent (if the relay agent is configured), to
the packet. Once the Option 82 information has been added to the packet it is sent on
to the DHCP server. When the DHCP server receives the packet, if the server is
capable of Option 82, it can implement policies like restricting the number of IP
addresses that can be assigned to a single remote ID or circuit ID. Then the DHCP
server echoes the Option 82 field in the DHCP reply. The DHCP server unicasts the
reply back to the relay agent if the request was relayed to the server by the relay
agent. The switch verifies that it originally inserted the Option 82 data. Finally, the
relay agent removes the Option 82 field and forwards the packet to the switch port
that connects to the DHCP client that sent the DHCP request.
Disabled- When the field is toggled to Disabled, the relay agent will not insert and
remove DHCP relay information (Option 82 field) in messages between DHCP
servers and clients, and the check and policy settings will have no effect.
Use the drop-down menu to enable or disable the Switches ability to check the
validity of the packet's Option 82 field.
Enabled – When the field is toggled to Enabled, the relay agent will check the validity
of the packet's Option 82 field. If the switch receives a packet that contains the Option
82 field from a DHCP client, the switch drops the packet because it is invalid. In
packets received from DHCP servers, the relay agent will drop invalid messages.
Disabled – When the field is toggled to Disabled, the relay agent will not check the
validity of the packet's Option 82 field.
Use the drop-down menu to set the Switches policy for handling packets when the
DHCP Relay Agent Information Option 82 Check is set to
Disabled. The default is Replace.
Replace – The Option 82 field will be replaced if the Option 82 field already exists in
the packet received from the DHCP client.
Drop – The packet will be dropped if the Option 82 field already exists in the packet
received from the DHCP client.
Keep – The Option 82 field will be retained if the Option 82 field already exists in the
packet received from the DHCP client.
Enter the DHCP Relay Agent Information Option 82 Remote ID.
Enter the DHCP Relay Agent Information Option 82 Circuit ID.
Use the drop-down menu to enable or disable the use of the DHCP Relay Option 60
State feature. If the packet does not have Option 60 enabled, then the relay servers
cannot be determined based on the Option 60. In this case the relay servers will be
determined based on either Option 61 or per IPIF configured servers. If the relay
servers are determined based on Option 60 or Option 61, then per IPIF configured
servers will be ignored. If the relay servers are not determined by either Option 60 or
Option 61, then per IPIF configured servers will be used to determine the relay
servers.
Enabled – Select this option to enable the DHCP Relay Option 60 state, in order to
relay DHCP packets.
Disabled - Select this option to disable the DHCP Relay Option 60 state.
Use the drop-down menu to enable or disable the use of the DHCP Relay Option 61
State feature. When Option 61 is enabled, if the packet does not have Option 61,
then the relay servers cannot be determined based on Option 61. If the relay servers
are determined based on Option 60 or Option 61, then per IPIF configured servers
will be ignored. If the relay servers are not determined either by Option 60 or Option
61, then per IPIF configured servers will be used to determine the relay servers.
Enabled – Select this option to enable the DHCP Relay Option 61 state, in order to
