Page 20-22
Defining a DHCP MAC Address Range Policy
You can see how DHCP MAC address policies were used in an application example on page
20-27.
After you enter the Administrative Status for this mobile group or AutoTracker
VLAN
, the
following menu displays:
Select rule type:
1. Port Rule
2. MAC Address Rule
21) MAC Address Range Rule
3. Protocol Rule
4. Network Address Rule
5. User Defined Rule
6. Binding Rule
7. DHCP PORT Rule
8. DHCP MAC Rule
81) DHCP MAC Range Rule
Enter rule type (1):
1. Enter
81
and press
<Enter>
.
2. The following prompt displays:
Set Rule Admin Status to ((e)nable/(d)isable):
Indicate whether or not you want to enable the Administrative Status for this rule. Type
e
to enable or
d
to disable. If you enable the rule, the switch will use it to determine
membership of devices. If you disable the rule, then the switch will not use this rule, but
the parameters you set up will be saved. The Admin Status for a Policy is different from
the Admin Status for the mobile group or AutoTracker
VLAN
as it applies only this specific
rule. You can enable or disable the rule at a later time using the
modatvl
command.
3. The following prompt displays:
Enter the lower end DHCP MAC addresses (AABBCC:DDEEFF) in canonical form
followed by the higher end:
Enter the low end DHCP
MAC
address followed by the high end DHCP MAC address.
Separate addresses by a space. The range is specified using the last two bytes of the MAC
address.
When you have entered the high end
MAC
address press
<Enter>
.
4. The following prompt displays:
Configure more rules for this vlan (y/n):
You can set up multiple rules for the same mobile group or AutoTracker
VLAN
. Enter a
Y
here if you want to set up more rules in addition to the port rule specified here. If you
enter
Y
, you will be prompted for the next rule that you want to set up. Follow the direc-
tions in the appropriate section to configure that rule.
If you enter
N
, you will receive a message, similar to the one below, indicating that the
VLAN
was set up.
VLAN 1:2 created successfully
You are done setting up rules for this mobile group or AutoTracker
VLAN
.

cannot be configured for AutoTracker VLANs.
