Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) can dynamically allocate an
IP address and other configuration information to network clients when they boot
up. If a subnet does not already include a BOOTP or DHCP server, you can relay
DHCP client requests to a DHCP server on another subnet.
Use the IP Service > DHCP > Client page to specify the DHCP client identifier for a
VLAN interface.
