9.2.6 dhcp server bims-server (Interface View)
Syntax
dhcp server bims-server ip ip-address [ port port-number ] sharekey key
undo dhcp server bims-server
View
Ethernet interface (subinterface) view
Parameter
ip ip-address: IP address of the BIMS server.
port port-number: Number of the protocol port on the BIMS server, in the range 1 to
65,534.
sharekey key: Shared key of the BIMS server, which can be 1 to 16 characters in
length.
Description
Use the dhcp server bims-server command to enable and configure BIMS option
support on the current interface.
Use the undo dhcp server bims-server command to disable BIMS option support on
the current interface.
After you configure BIMS option support on the DHCP server, the DHCP server
encapsulates the BIMS option information in the DHCP_OFFER and DHCP_ACK
packets sent to the DHCP clients according to these rules:
If BIMS option support is enabled on the current interface, the DHCP server sends the
BIMS option information together with the lease when assigning an IP address from the
interface address pool to a DHCP client.
By default, BIMS option support is not configured on the DHCP server.
Example
# Configure BIMS option support on Ethernet interface ethernet0/0/0 (which is
configured with an interface address pool), setting the IP address of the BIMS server to
192.168.1.1, the protocol port to 80, and the shared key to abcdefg.
