9.2.3 DHCP Class Policy Configuration
The DHCP server assigns IP addresses to DHCP enabled wireless clients based on user class option names.
Clients with a defined set of user class option names are identified by their user class name. The DHCP server
can assign IP addresses from as many IP address ranges as defined by the administrator. The DHCP user class
associates a particular range of IP addresses to a device in such a way that all devices of that type are
assigned IP addresses from the defined range.
Refer to the DHCP Class Policy screen to review existing DHCP class names and their current multiple user
class designations. Multiple user class options enable a user class to transmit multiple option values to
DHCP servers supporting multiple user class options. Either add a new class policy, edit the configuration of
an existing policy or permanently delete a policy as required.
To review DHCP class policies:
1. Select the Class Policy tab.
Figure 9-14 DHCP Server Policy screen - Class Policy tab
2. Select Add to create a new DHCP class policy, Edit to update an existing policy or Delete to remove an
existing policy.
