User Guidelines
This capability requires the DHCP service to be enabled. Enable the DHCP
service using the service dhcp command. Dell EMC Networking supports
dynamic, automatic, and manual address assignment. Dynamic address
assignment leases an address to the client for a limited period of time.
Automatic assignment assigns a permanent address to a client. Manual
(static) assignment simply conveys an address assigned by the administrator
to the client.
In DHCP Pool Configuration mode, the administrator can configure the
address space and other parameters to be supplied to DHCP clients. By
default, the DHCP server assumes that all addresses specified are available for
assignment to clients. Use the ip dhcp excluded-address command in Global
Configuration mode to specify addresses that should never be assigned to
DHCP clients.
To configure a dynamic DHCP address pool, configure the following pool
properties using the listed DHCP pool commands:
• Address pool subnet and mask – network
• Client domain name – domain-name
• Client DNS server – dns-server
• NetBIOS WINS Server – netbios-name-server
• NetBIOS Node Type – netbios-node-type
• Client default router – default-router
