Configuring General Dhcp Server Parameters - Enterasys SecureStack C2 Configuration Manual

2. Create a routed interface for the VLAN in router configuration mode. In the following
example, an IP address is associated with routed interface VLAN 6:
In router configuration mode:
interface vlan 6
no shutdown
ip address 6.6.1.1 255.255.0.0
3. Enable DHCP server functionality on the system with the set dhcp enable command.
4. Create the DHCP address pool. The only required steps are to name the pool and define the
network number and mask for the pool. Note that the pool has to be in the same subnet as the
routed interface and use the same mask configured on the routed interface. For example:
set dhcp pool auto-pool network 6.6.0.0 255.255.0.0
DHCP clients in VLAN 6 will be served IP addresses from this DHCP address pool.
Optional DHCP server tasks include:
• You can limit the scope of addresses assigned to a pool for dynamic address assignment with
the set dhcp exclude command. Up to 128 non‐overlapping address ranges can be excluded
on the SecureStack C2. For example:
set dhcp exclude 192.0.0.1 192.0.0.10
• Configure static address pools for manual address assignment. The only required steps are to
name the pool, configure either the hardware address of the client or the client identifier, and
configure the IP address and mask for the manual binding. For example:
set dhcp pool static-pool hardware-address 0011.2233.4455
set dhcp pool static-pool host 192.0.0.200 255.255.255.0
• Set other DHCP server parameters such as the number of ping packets to be sent before
assigning an IP address, or enabling conflict logging.

Configuring General DHCP Server Parameters

Purpose
To configure DHCP server parameters, and to display and clear address binding information,
server statistics, and conflict information.
Commands
For information about...
set dhcp
set dhcp bootp
set dhcp conflict logging
show dhcp conflict
clear dhcp conflict
Note: The IP address of the system's host port or the routed interface is automatically
excluded.
