REVENTION
DHCP Prevention protects your company’s network DHCP Server. When the
Smart button is pressed in, it enables a DHCP port restriction feature. The DHCP
Prevention feature restricts the DHCP server to the DHCP Port only (port 1). If,
on the remaining ports, other DHCP servers are added to the network, the
switch will prevent them providing DHCP service.
