IP Services—IP Settings, DHCP, and DNS

DHCP Server

As a DHCP server, the Wireless Edge Services xl Module can also implement

dynamic DNS (DDNS), which updates a DNS server whenever a host’s IP

address changes.

Finally, the Wireless Edge Services xl Module supports DHCP relay.

Configuring the DHCP Server

If you want the Wireless Edge Services xl Module to assign IP addresses to

devices on your network, you must configure it as a DHCP server by following

the steps outlined in the following sections. You can access all of the options

necessary to configure the DHCP server from the Network Setup > DHCP Server

screen in the Web browser interface.

To run the DHCP server on a VLAN, the VLAN must meet these requirements:

■ It must have a static IP address. (See “Assigning an IP Address to a VLAN”

on page 6-5.)

■ It must not implement DHCP relay.

DHCP relay configurations take precedence over the DHCP server. In

other words, if you associate a VLAN interface with a network pool and

you also implement DHCP relay on that interface, the module does not

respond to DHCP requests on that VLAN. Instead it relays requests to an

external server.

After configuring the DHCP server, you must enable it. If the server is already

enabled, any configurations you make to it take effect only after the server

restarts. The DHCP server automatically restarts 30 seconds after you apply

a change. You can also manually restart the server.

Creating DHCP Pools

As a DHCP server, the Wireless Edge Services xl Module requires one or more

pools from which to issue configurations to devices. You can configure either

a network pool or a host pool.

A network pool includes a range of IP addresses from which the DHCP server

can choose as it responds to DHCP requests. The Wireless Edge Services xl

Module associates each network pool with a particular VLAN. When a station

in that VLAN sends a DHCP request, the module responds with one of the

addresses from the associated pool.
