Configuring DHCP tests
DHCP tests of an NQA test group are used to test if a DHCP server is on the network, and the time for
the DHCP server to respond to a client request and assign an IP address to the client.
Before you start DHCP tests, configure the DHCP server. If the NQA (DHCP client) and the DHCP server
are not in the same network segment, configure a DHCP relay. For the configuration of DHCP server and
DHCP relay, see Network Management Configuration Guide.
