Chapter 5: DHCP Configuration Guide
76 SmartSwitch Router User Reference Manual
Configuring DHCP
By default, the DHCP server is not enabled on the SSR. You can selectively enable DHCP
service on particular interfaces and not others. To enable DHCP service on an interface,
you must first define a DHCP
scope . A scope consists of a pool of IP addresses and a set of
parameters for a DHCP client. The parameters are used by the client to configure its
network environment, for example, the default gateway and DNS domain name.
To configure DHCP on the SSR, you must configure an IP address pool, client parameters,
and optional static IP address for a specified scope. Where several subnets are accessed
through a single port, you can also define multiple scopes on the same interface and
group the scopes together into a “superscope.”
Configuring an IP Address Pool
To define a pool of IP addresses that the DHCP server can assign to a client, enter the
following command in Configure mode:
