9. Activate each of the DHCP pools you configured using the ip dhcp activate
pool command in general context, followed by the pool number.
10. Enter ip dhcp-server to activate DHCP server.
DHCP server is now active. If you change the pool configuration, it is recommended
to do so while the pool is active.
Note:
If you try to configure a new start and end IP address that is not part of the current
network and beyond the allowed maximum of 256 IP addresses, first use the no
start ip address and no end ip address commands before configuring
the new start and end IP addresses.
