Table 2-3 DHCP relay agent interface configuration items
Item Description
Interface Name This field displays the name of a specific interface.
DHCP Relay Enable or disable the DHCP relay agent on the interface.
Address Match Check
Enable or disable IP address check.
With this function enabled, the DHCP relay agent checks whether a
requesting client’s IP and MAC addresses match a binding (dynamic or
static) on the DHCP relay agent. If not, the client cannot access outside
networks via the DHCP relay agent. This prevents invalid IP address
configuration.
Server Group ID
Correlate the interface with a DHCP server group.
A DHCP server group can be correlated with multiple interfaces.
