23. DHCP Server Commands
299
Parameters
Restrictions
Only Administrator, Operator and Power-User level users can issue this command.
Example
To configure the next server:
23.15. config dhcp ping_packets
Description
This command is used to specify the number of ping packets the DHCP server sends to an
IP address before assigning this address to a requesting client.
By default, the DHCP server pings a pool address twice before assigning the address to a
DHCP client. If the ping is unanswered, the DHCP server assumes (with a high probability)
that the address is not in use and assigns the address to the requesting client. If the ping is
answered, the server will discard the current IP address and try another IP address.
Format
config dhcp ping_packets <number 0-10>
Parameters

Success.
