Command Modes Privileged EXEC
Command History
Usage Guidelines In the DHCP snooping binding database, each database entry, also referred to a binding, has an IP
address, an associated MAC address, the lease time (in hexadecimal format), the interface to which the
binding applies, and the VLAN to which the interface belongs. The database can have up to 512
bindings.
When a switch learns new bindings or it loses bindings, the switch updates the entries in the database
and in the binding file at a configured location. The frequency at which the database and the file are
updated is based on a configurable delay, and the updates are batched. You can configure this delay by
using the ip dhcp snooping database write-delay seconds global configuration command.
Use the show ip dhcp snooping binding privileged EXEC command to display only the dynamically
configured bindings. Use the show ip source binding privileged EXEC command to display the
dynamically and statically configured bindings.
