• Dynamic Host Control Protocol server—The Cisco IOS DHCP server feature is a full DHCP server
implementation that assigns and manages IP addresses from specified address pools within the
router to DHCP clients. If the Cisco IOS DHCP server cannot satisfy a DHCP request from its own
database, it can forward the request to one or more secondary DHCP servers defined by the network
administrator.
With DHCP-based autoconfiguration, your switch (the DHCP client) is automatically configured at
startup with IP address information and a configuration file.
For more information on configuring the DHCP server, refer to the following URL:
