Chapter 15: DHCP Server with Port-Based IP Assignment
328
The LEASE INFINITE command sets the lease to never expire.
This command is performed from DHCP Configuration mode.
The time set by the days, hours, minutes, and seconds is cumulative. The
minimum total lease time that can be configured is 20 seconds. The
maximum total lease time that can be configured is 120 days.
Use the LEASE INFINITE command to set the lease expiry time to infinite
(lease never expires).
Use the NO form of this command to return the lease expiration time to the
default of 1 day.
This example sets the lease expiration time for pool P1 to 35 minutes.
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config)# ip dhcp pool P1
awplus(dhcp-config)# lease 0 0 35
Setting the
Options
The optional commands for configuring a DHCP server are:
SUBNET-MASK - refer to “SUBNET-MASK”
DEFAULT-ROUTER - refer to “DEFAULT-ROUTER” on page 329
DNS-SERVER - refer to “DNS-SERVER” on page 329
DOMAIN-NAME - refer to “DOMAIN-NAME” on page 330
These commands are performed from DHCP Configuration mode.
SUBNET-MASK
The command to set the subnet mask to be sent to the DHCP client is
SUBNET-MASK.
This command specifies the client’s subnet mask as defined in RFC 950.
Here is the format of the command:
subnet-mask <
mask
>
The MASK parameter is a valid IPv4 subnet mask, in dotted decimal
notation.
Use the NO form of this command to remove the subnet mask option from
a DHCP pool. The pool reverts to using the pool’s network mask.
This example sets the set the subnet mask option to 255.255.255.0 for
pool P1.
