DHCP Relay Configuration 
As shown in the above figure, route switch is configured as a DHCP relay. The DHCP server 
address is 10.1.1.10, the configuration steps is as follows:  
Switch(config)#service dhcp 
Switch(config)#interface vlan 1 
Switch(Config-if-Vlan1)#ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 
Switch(Config-if-Vlan1)#exit 
Switch(config)#vlan 2 
Switch(Config-Vlan-2)#exit 
Switch(config)#interface Ethernet 1/2 
Switch(Config-Erthernet1/2)#switchport access vlan 2 
Switch(Config-Erthernet1/2)#exit 
Switch(config)#interface vlan 2 
Switch(Config-if-Vlan2)#ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0 
Switch(Config-if-Vlan2)#exit 
Switch(config)#ip forward-protocol udp bootps 
Switch(config)#interface vlan 1 
Switch(Config-if-Vlan1)#ip help-address 10.1.1.10 
Switch(Config-if-Vlan1)#exit 
Note: It is recommended to use the combination of command ip forward-protocol udp <port> 
and ip helper-address <ipaddress>. ip help-address can only be configured for ports on layer 3 
and cannot be configured on layer 2 ports directly.
