Release Notes

0511587-03 | September 2014 Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.4.2.0-4.1.1 | CLI Reference Guide
Parameter Description Range Default
available in an IP address range
configured for a DHCP scope and a
client count of 9 is configured, only a
few IP addresses (in this example, 9)
from this range will be used and
allocated to a branch. The W-IAP
does not allow the administrators to
assign the remaining IP addresses to
another branch, although a lower
value is configured for the client
count.
default-router
<default_router>
Defines the IP address of the default
router for the Distributed, L2 DHCP
scope.
dhcp-relay
Enables the W-IAPs to intercept the
broadcast packets and relay DHCP
requests directly to corporate
network.
The DHCP relay is enabled for the
centralized DHCP scopes to reduce
network traffic caused by the
broadcasting of DHCP requests to
the corporate network. With a
centralized DHCP scope, the clients
in the branch are in the same subnet
as clients in the corporate network.
Normally the DHCP request goes
through the VPN tunnel and is
broadcast into the corporate
network. This feature allows it to
succeed without requiring to
broadcast and thus reduces the
network traffic.
dhcp-server <dhcp_
server>
Defines the IP address of the
corporate DHCP server for DHCP
request relay.
disable-split-tunnel
Disables split tunnel functionality for
Centralized L2 subnets.
Split tunneling allows a VPN user to
access a public network and a local
LAN or WAN network at the same
time through the same physical
network connection.
