The following example shows how to configure the DHCP snooping database agent to store the bindings
at a given location and to view the configuration and operating state:

Router(config)# ip dhcp snooping database tftp://10.1.1.1/directory/file
Router(config)# end
Router# show ip dhcp snooping database detail

With releases earlier than Release 12.2(18)SXF5, the DHCP snooping database stores a maximum
of 512 bindings. If the database attempts to add more than 512 DHCP bindings, all bindings are
removed from the database.
With Release 12.2(18)SXF5 and later releases, the DHCP snooping database stores at least 8,000
bindings.
Store the file on a TFTP server to avoid consuming storage space on the router storage devices.
When a switchover occurs, if the file is stored in a remote location accessible through TFTP, the
newly active supervisor engine can use the binding list.
Network-based URLs (such as TFTP and FTP) require that you create an empty file at the configured
URL before the router can write the set of bindings for the first time.
