Configuring a DHCP Server
For
DHCP
to
function
on
G
‐
Series
systems,
the
system
has
to
“know
about”
the
IP
network
for
which
the
DHCP
pool
is
to
be
created.
This
is
done
by
associating
the
DHCP
address
pool
with
the
switch’s
host
port
IP
address.
The
following
tasks
provide
basic
DHCP
server
functionality
when
the
DHCP
pool
is
associated
with
the
system’s
host
IP
address.
1.
Configure
the
system
host
port
IP
address
with
the
set
ip
address
command.
Once
the
system’s
IP
address
is
configured,
the
system
then
“knows”
about
the
configured
subnet.
For
example:
set ip address 192.0.0.50 mask 255.255.255.0
2.
Enable
DHCP
server
functionality
on
the
system
with
the
set
dhcp
enable
command.
3.
Configure
an
IP
address
pool
for
dynamic
IP
address
assignment.
The
only
required
steps
are
to
name
the
pool
and
define
the
network
number
and
mask
for
the
pool.
Note
that
the
pool
has
to
be
in
the
same
subnet
and
use
the
same
mask
as
the
system
host
port
IP
address.
For
example:
set dhcp pool auto-pool network 192.0.0.0 255.255.255.0
All
DHCP
clients
served
by
this
switch
must
be
in
the
same
VLAN
as
the
system’s
host
port.
Optional
DHCP
server
tasks
include:
•
You
can
limit
the
scope
of
addresses
assigned
to
a
pool
for
dynamic
address
assignment
with
the
set
dhcp
exclude
command.
Up
to
128
non
‐
overlapping
address
ranges
can
be
excluded
on
the
G
‐
Series.
For
example:
set dhcp exclude 192.0.0.1 192.0.0.10
•
Configure
static
address
pools
for
manual
address
assignment.
The
only
required
steps
are
to
name
the
pool,
configure
either
the
hardware
address
of
the
client
or
the
client
identifier,
and
configure
the
IP
address
and
mask
for
the
manual
binding.
For
example:
set dhcp pool static-pool hardware-address 0011.2233.4455
set dhcp pool static-pool host 192.0.0.200 255.255.255.0
•
Set
other
DHCP
server
parameters
such
as
the
number
of
ping
packets
to
be
sent
before
assigning
an
IP
address,
or
enabling
conflict
logging.
Note:
A total of 16 address pools, dynamic and/or static, can be configured on the G-Series
.
Note:
The IP address of the system’s host port is automatically excluded.
