Task
Configuration guidelines

Task
Configuration guidelines
Remarks
Required.
Enable DHCP globally.
Disabled by default.
Optional.
For detailed configuration, see
Enabled by default.
IMPORTANT:
The DHCP server configuration is supported only on a Layer 3 Ethernet
interface (or subinterface), virtual Ethernet interface, VLAN interface,
Layer 3 aggregate interface, serial interface, ATM interface,
MP-group interface, or loopback interface.
Required.
An address pool can be either static or dynamic, but not both.
IMPORTANT:
When a DHCP client tries to obtain an IP address through a DHCP
relay agent, an IP address pool on the same network segment as the
DHCP relay agent interface must be configured. Otherwise, the DHCP
client fails to obtain an IP address.
Optional.
Exclude IP addresses from automatic allocation in the DHCP address
pool.
To avoid address conflicts, the DHCP server excludes IP addresses
used by the gateway or FTP server from dynamic allocation.
By default, all IP addresses in the address pool, except the IP address
of the DHCP server, can be assigned automatically.
IMPORTANT:
If a static bound IP address is excluded from automatic allocation, it is
still assignable to the bound user.
Remarks
Required.
Enable DHCP globally.
Disabled by default.
