Enabling DHCP

To enable DHCP:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable DHCP.

Enabling the DHCP server on an interface

With the DHCP server enabled on an interface, upon receiving a client's request, the DHCP server will
assign an IP address from its address pool to the DHCP client.

Configuration guidelines

Follow these guidelines when you enable the DHCP server on an interface:
If a DHCP relay agent exists between the DHCP server and client, the DHCP server, regardless of
•
whether the subaddress keyword is used, selects an IP address from the address pool containing the
primary IP address of the DHCP relay agent's interface (connected to the client) for a requesting
client.
When the DHCP server and client communicate without Layer 3 forwarding:
•
With the keyword subaddress specified, the DHCP server will preferably assign an IP address
from an address pool that resides on the same subnet as the primary IP address of the server
