Note:
The DHCP client configuration is supported only on VLAN interfaces.
You are not recommended to enable both the DHCP client and the DHCP Snooping
on the same device. Otherwise, DHCP Snooping entries may fail to be generated,
or the DHCP client may fail to obtain an IP address.
4.1 Introduction to DHCP Client
With the DHCP client enabled on an interface, the interface will use DHCP to obtain
configuration parameters such as an IP address from the DHCP server.
For S3610&S5510 series Ethernet switches (operating as DHCP clients), the vendor
and device information contained in Option 60 of DHCP requests is not configurable;
instead, it is determined by the application program of the switches. Refer to
for different information added in Option 60 based on device models.
