Defaults

The DHCP server is enabled by default.

Access

Enabled.

Usage

By default, all addresses except the host address of the VLAN, the

network broadcast address, and the subnet broadcast address are included in the

range. If you specify the range, the start address must be lower than the stop

address, and all addresses must be in the same subnet. The IP interface of the

VLAN must be within the same subnet but is not required to be within the range.

Specification of the DNS domain name, DNS servers, and default router are

optional. If you omit one or more of these options, the UNIVERGE WL Control

System DHCP server uses oath values configured elsewhere on the switch:

l DNS domain name––If this option is not set with the set interface

dhcp-server command dns-domain option, the UNIVERGE WL Control

System DHCP server uses the value set by the set ip dns domain command.

l DNS servers––If these options are not set with the set interface dhcp-server

command primary-dns and secondary-dns options, the UNIVERGE WL

Control System DHCP server uses the values set by the set ip dns server

command.

l Default router––If this option is not set with the set interface dhcp-server

command default-router option, the UNIVERGE WL Control System

DHCP server can use the value set by the set ip route command. A default

route configured by set ip route can be used if the route is in the DHCP client

subnet. Otherwise, the UNIVERGE WL Control System DHCP server does

not specify a router address.

Examples

The following command enables the DHCP server on VLAN red-vlan

to serve addresses from the 192.168.1.5 to 192.168.1.25 range:

PROMPT# set interface red-vlan ip dhcp-server enable start 192.168.1.5 stop

192.168.1.25

success: change accepted.
