Overview
DHCP Server with Port-Based IP Assignment allows a network switch to
be provisioned to assign specific network parameters to connecting
devices based on their physical port location, as shown in Figure 72.

This lets you configure individual, or ranges of, IP Addresses on a per-port
basis. In this way, administrators will always know which address is
assigned based on where the device is physically connected, regardless
of its MAC address. Port-based IP address assignment with port
description allows operators to easily identify the end device based on a
criteria that works best for them.
Port-Based IP Assignment works in conjunction with DHCP server. Up to
254 clients can be configured per switch.
To configure Port-Based IP Assignment, a user must first configure the
DHCP server.
