Reference Guide

Default gateway
Ensure the IP address of the default router is on the same subnet as the client.
1. Enable DHCP server-assigned dynamic addresses on an interface in CONFIGURATION mode.
ip dhcp server
2. Create an IP address pool and provide a name in DHCP mode.
pool name
3. Enter the default gateway(s) for the clients on the subnet in order of preference in DHCP<POOL> mode.
default-router address
Change default gateway name
OS10(config)# ip dhcp server
OS10(conf-dhcp)# pool Dell
OS10(conf-dhcp-Dell)# default-router 20.1.1.1
Enable DHCP server
Use the ip dhcp server command to enable DHCP server-assigned dynamic addresses on an interface in CONFIGURATION
mode. The DHCP server is disabled by default.
OS10(config)# ip dhcp server
OS10(conf-dhcp)# no disable
Hostname resolution
You have two choices for hostname resolution — domain name server (DNS) or NetBIOS Windows internet naming service
(WINS). Both DHCP and WINS clients query IP servers to compare host names to IP addresses.
1. Enable DHCP server-assigned dynamic addresses on an interface in DHCP <POOL> mode.
ip dhcp server
2. Create in IP address pool and enter the name in DHCP mode.
pool name
3. Create a domain and enter the domain name in DHCP <POOL> mode.
domain-name name
4. Enter the DNS servers in order of preference that are available to a DHCP client in DHCP <POOL> mode.
dns-server address
DNS address resolution
OS10(config)# ip dhcp server
OS10(conf-dhcp)# pool Dell
OS10(conf-dhcp-Dell)# domain-name dell.com
OS10(conf-dhcp-Dell)# dns-server 192.168.1.1
NetBIOS WINS address resolution
DHCP clients can be one of four types of NetBIOS nodes — broadcast, peer-to-peer, mixed, or hybrid. Dell EMC recommends
using hybrid as the NetBIOS node type.
