Configuring DHCP Features

DHCP Snooping and Switch Stacks

DHCP snooping is managed on the stack master. When a new switch joins the stack, the switch receives
the DHCP snooping configuration from the stack master. When a member leaves the stack, all DHCP
snooping address bindings associated with the switch age out.
All snooping statistics are generated on the stack master. If a new stack master is elected, the statistics
counters reset.
When a stack merge occurs, all DHCP snooping bindings in the stack master are lost if it is no longer
the stack master. With a stack partition, the existing stack master is unchanged, and the bindings
belonging to the partitioned switches age out. The new master of the partitioned stack begins processing
the new incoming DHCP packets. For more information about switch stacks, see
Switch Stacks."
