Chapter 21 Configuring DHCP Features and IP Source Guard
Configuring DHCP Features
To disable DHCP snooping, use the no ip dhcp snooping global configuration command. To disable
DHCP snooping on a VLAN or range of VLANs, use the no ip dhcp snooping vlan vlan-range global
configuration command. To disable the insertion and removal of the option-82 field, use the no ip dhcp
snooping information option global configuration command.
This example shows how to enable DHCP snooping globally and on VLAN 10 and to configure a rate
limit of 100 packets per second on a port:
Switch(config)# ip dhcp snooping
Switch(config)# ip dhcp snooping vlan 10
Switch(config)# ip dhcp snooping information option
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet2/0/1
Switch(config-if)# ip dhcp snooping limit rate 100
Step 3
ip dhcp snooping vlan vlan-range Enable DHCP snooping on a VLAN or range of VLANs. The range is 1
to 4094.
You can enter a single VLAN ID identified by VLAN ID number, a series
of VLAN IDs separated by commas, a range of VLAN IDs separated by
hyphens, or a range of VLAN IDs separated by entering the starting and
ending VLAN IDs separated by a space.
Step 4
ip dhcp snooping information option Enable the switch to insert and remove DHCP relay information
(option-82 field) in forwarded DHCP request messages to the DHCP
server.
The default is enabled.
Step 5
interface interface-id Enter interface configuration mode, and specify the interface to be
configured.
Step 6
ip dhcp snooping trust (Optional) Configure the interface as trusted or untrusted. You can use the
no keyword to configure an interface to receive messages from an
untrusted client. The default is untrusted.
Step 7
ip dhcp snooping limit rate rate (Optional) Configure the number of DHCP packets per second than an
interface can receive. The range is 1 to 4294967294. The default is no rate
limit configured.
Note We recommend an untrusted rate limit of not more than 100
packets per second. If you configure rate limiting for trusted
interfaces, you might need to increase the rate limit if the port is
a trunk port assigned to more than one VLAN on which DHCP
snooping is enabled.
Step 8
ip dhcp snooping verify mac-address (Optional) Configure the switch to verify that the source MAC address in
a DHCP packet that is received on untrusted ports matches the client
hardware address in the packet. The default is to verify that the source
MAC address matches the client hardware address in the packet.
Step 9
end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 10
show running-config Verify your entries.
Step 11
copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
