DHCP S
ERVER
35-9
Usage Guidelines
• After executing this command, the switch changes to DHCP Pool
Configuration mode, identified by the (config-dhcp)# prompt.
• From this mode, first configure address pools for the network
interfaces (using the network command). You can also manually bind
an address to a specific client (with the host command) if required.
You can configure up to 8 network address pools, and up to 32
manually bound host address pools (i.e., listing one host address per
pool). However, note that any address specified in a host command
must fall within the range of a configured network address pool.
