DHCP-server configuration tasks
To configure the IPLink as DHCP-server perform the steps mentioned below.
•
Configure DHCP-server profiles
•
Use DHCP-server profiles and enable the DHCP-server (and to clear lease database) (see
page 258
)
•
Check DHCP-server configuration and status (see
page 259
)
•
Get debug output from the DHCP-server (see
page 259
)
Configure DHCP-server profiles
The DHCP-server profiles hold the configuration information for the DHCP-server. The DHCP-server is capa-
ble of serving up to 8 subnets. Each subnet requires its own DHCP-server profile. The IP address/mask configu-
ration of the IP interface implicitly links an IP interface to a subnet and hence to a DHCP-server profile.
Note
A profile can only be modified if it is not assigned to the DHCP-server yet or
if the DHCP-server is disabled. Use the command
no dhcp-server
to dis-
able the DHCP-server (see below).
This procedure describes how to configure a DHCP-server profile
