Usage Guidelines
◆ After executing this command, the switch changes to DHCP Pool Configuration
mode, identified by the (config-dhcp)# prompt.
◆ From this mode, first configure address pools for the network interfaces (using
the network command). You can also manually bind an address to a specific
client (with the host command) if required. You can configure up to 8 network
address pools, and up to 32 manually bound host address pools (i.e., listing one
host address per pool). However, note that any address specified in a host
command must fall within the range of a configured network address pool.

Console(config)#ip dhcp pool R&D
Console(config-dhcp)#
