Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) can dynamically allocate an
IP address and other configuration information to network clients that
broadcast a request. To receive the broadcast request, the DHCP server
would normally have to be on the same subnet as the client. However,
when the access point’s DHCP relay agent is enabled, received client
requests can be forwarded directly by the access point to a known DHCP
server on another subnet. Responses from the DHCP server are returned to
the access point, which then broadcasts them back to clients.
dhcp-relay enable
This command enables the access point’s DHCP relay agent. Use the no
form to disable the agent.

◆
For the DHCP relay agent to function, the primary DHCP server must be
configured using the dhcp-relay primary command. A secondary
DHCP server does not need to be configured, but it is recommended.
◆
If there is no response from the primary DHCP server, and a secondary
server has been configured, the agent will then attempt to send DHCP
requests to the secondary server.
