Use this command to specify how long the DHCP server will wait for the ping
reply from a pool address. Use the no form of this command to restore the wait
time for the ping reply back to the default value (500ms).

Default 500 milliseconds.
Command Mode Global configuration
Usage Guideline Before the DHCP server attempts to assign a pool address to a client, it tries to
ping the specific pool address. If the ping packet is unanswered, the DHCP
server assumes this pool address is currently available and is safe to assign to
the requesting client. This command sets the time that the DHCP server will wait
for a reply from the address that it pinged.
Example The following is sample of configuring the ping timeout as 100.
Syntax Description
MILLISECONDS The interval of time from 100 to 1000 milliseconds that the DHCP server will wait
for a ping reply.
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# ip dhcp ping timeout 100
