Configuring DHCP Snooping

DHCP Snooping expands network security by providing firewall security between untrusted interfaces and
DHCP servers. By enabling DHCP Snooping network administrators can differentiate between trusted
interfaces connected to end-users or DHCP Servers and untrusted interfaces located beyond the network
firewall.
DHCP Snooping filters untrusted messages. DHCP Snooping creates and maintains a DHCP Snooping
Table which contains information received from untrusted packets. Interfaces are untrusted if the packet is
received from an interface outside the network or from an interface beyond the network firewall. Trusted
interfaces receive packets only from within the network or the network firewall.
The DHCP Snooping Table contains the untrusted interfaces' MAC address, IP address, Lease Time, VLAN
ID, and interface information.
The DHCP section contains the following topics:
Defining DHCP Snooping Properties
Defining DHCP Snooping on VLANs
Defining Trusted Interfaces
Adding Interfaces to the DHCP Snooping Database
Defining DHCP Snooping Global Parameters
The DHCP Snooping Global Parameters page contains parameters for enabling and configuring DHCP
Snooping on the device.
To define DHCP global parameters, click Switch→ DHCP Snooping → Global Parameters.
