Case Study: Configuring the DHCP Server in Microsoft Windows
Server 2008
ExtremeXOS software version 12.5.1. and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 were used in this case study.
In this section, we will describe the steps required to configure the DHCP Server in Microsoft Windows Server 2008 to work with
the Extreme Networks Auto Configuration feature. In particular, we will configure the DHCP server to serve the required

Steps: Open the DHCP Server program.
Steps: On the left pane, right click on the super scope IPv4 → Click "Define Vendor Classes..."
