DHCP requests in a network with DHCP Assist operating on a FastIron
When the stamped DHCP discovery packet is then received at the router, it is forwarded to the DHCP server. The
DHCP server then extracts the gateway address from each request and assigns an available IP address within the
corresponding IP sub-net (Figure 16.8). The IP address is then forwarded back to the workstation that originated
the request.
NOTE:
The DHCP relay function of the connecting router needs to be turned on.

Step 2:
FastIron stamps each DHCP request
with the gateway address of the
corresponding subnet of the
receiving port.
