DHCPv4 Snooping
– 308 –
switch receives any messages from a DHCP server, any packets received from
untrusted ports are dropped.
Example
This example enables DHCP snooping globally for the switch.

Console(config)#

information option
This command enables the use of DHCP Option 82 information for the switch, and
specifies the frame format to use for the remote-id when Option 82 information is
generated by the switch. Use the no form without any keywords to disable this
function, the no form with the encode no-subtype keyword to enable use of sub-
type and sub-length in CID/RID fields, or the no form with the remote-id keyword
to set the remote ID to the switch’s MAC address encoded in hexadecimal.
Syntax
ip dhcp snooping information option
[encode no-subtype]
[remote-id {ip-address [encode {ascii | hex}] |
mac-address [encode {ascii | hex}] |
string string}]
no ip dhcp snooping information option
[encode no-subtype]
[remote-id [ip-address encode] |
[mac-address encode]]
encode no-subtype - Disables use of sub-type and sub-length fields in
circuit-ID (CID) and remote-ID (RID) in Option 82 information.
mac-address - Inserts a MAC address in the remote ID sub-option for the
DHCP snooping agent (that is, the MAC address of the switch’s CPU).
ip-address - Inserts an IP address in the remote ID sub-option for the DHCP
snooping agent (that is, the IP address of the management interface).
encode - Indicates encoding in ASCII or hexadecimal.
string - An arbitrary string inserted into the remote identifier field.
