DCS-3950 series Ethernet switch manual
forward such DHCP packets so that the DHCP packets exchange can be completed
between the DHCP client and server.
DCS-3950 series switch can act as both a DHCP server and a DHCP relay. DHCP
server supports not only dynamic IP address assignment, but also manual IP address
binding (i.e. specify a specific IP address to a specified MAC address or specified device
ID over a long period. The differences and relations between dynamic IP address
allocation and manual IP address binding are: 1) IP address obtained dynamically can be
different every time; manually bound IP address will be the same all the time. 2) The lease
period of IP address obtained dynamically is the same as the lease period of the address
pool, and is limited; the lease of manually bound IP address is theoretically endless. 3)
The IP addresses bound manually have higher priority than the IP addresses allocated
dynamically. 4) Dynamic DHCP address pool can inherit the network configuration
parameters of the dynamic DHCP address pool of the related segment.
