Connectivity Guide

With a xed host conguration, also known as manual binding, you must congure a network pool with a matching subnet. The static host-
to-MAC address mapping pool inherits the network mask from the network pool with subnet conguration, which includes the host’s
address range.
Consider the following example:
OS10# show running-configuration interface ethernet 1/1/2
!
interface ethernet1/1/2
no shutdown
no switchport
ip address 100.1.1.1/24
flowcontrol receive off
OS10# show running-configuration ip dhcp
!
ip dhcp server
no disable
!
pool host1
host 100.1.1.34
hardware-address 00:0c:29:ee:4c:f4
!
pool hostnetwork
lease infinite
network 100.1.1.0/24
!
pool host2
host 20.1.1.34
hardware-address 00:0c:29:aa:22:f4
In this example, the pool host1, which is the xed host mapping pool, inherits the subnet and other attributes from the pool
hostnetwork, which is the DHCP client IP address pool. There is no matching network pool for host2. Therefore, the DHCP client with
the MAC address
00:0c:29:aa:22:f4 does not obtain the correct parameters.
Conguring a DHCP client on a non-default VRF instance
To congure a DHCP client on an interface that is part of a non-default VRF instance:
1 Enter the INTERFACE CONFIGURATION mode corresponding to the interface on which you want to congure a DHCP client.
CONFIGURATION
OS10(config)#interface interface-name
interface 2/1/1
2 Assign the interface to the non-default VRF instance.
INTERFACE CONFIGURATION
OS10(config-inf)#ip vrf forwarding vrf-name
ip vrf forwarding vrf-test
3 Congure the DHCP client on the interface that you have assigned to the non-default VRF instance.
