Configuring the
DHCP Server
This switch includes a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server that can
assign temporary IP addresses to any attached host requesting service. It can also
provide other network settings such as the domain name, default gateway, Domain
Name Servers (DNS), Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) name servers, or
information on the bootup file for the host device to download.
Addresses can be assigned to clients from a common address pool configured for a
specific IP interface on this switch, or fixed addresses can be assigned to hosts
based on the client identifier code or MAC address.
