Enabling the DHCP server on an interface
Perform this task to enable the DHCP server on an interface. Upon receiving a DHCP request on the
interface, the DHCP server assigns an IP address and other configuration parameters from the DHCP
address pool to the DHCP client.
Configuration guidelines
Follow these guidelines when you enable the DHCP server on an interface:
• If a DHCP relay agent exists between the DHCP server and client, the DHCP server, regardless of
whether the subaddress keyword is used, selects an IP address from the address pool containing the
primary IP address of the DHCP relay agent's interface (connected to the client) for a requesting
client.
