Configuring The Dhcp User Class - Brocade Communications Systems RFS6000 System Reference Manual

Configuring the DHCP user class

The DHCP server assigns IP addresses to clients based on user class option names. Clients with a
defined set of user class option names are identified by their user class name.
The DHCP server assigns IP addresses from multiple IP address ranges. The DHCP user class
associates a particular range of IP addresses to a device in such a way that all devices of that type
are assigned IP addresses from the defined range.
