Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
Managing and Troubleshooting the DHCP Client
Managing and Troubleshooting the
DHCP Client
You should carefully monitor interfaces with dynamic addresses to ensure that
they have an address and are using the proper configurations.
Viewing the Interface’s Lease
To view the active DHCP client leases on the router, enter:
ProCurve# show ip dhcp-client lease
The CLI displays all interfaces with dynamic addresses. For each interface, it
lists:
■ Temp IP address—the dynamic address
■ DHCP lease server
■ Lease—total time for the lease
■ Temp default gateway address
■ Client ID—typically, based on the MAC address
■ Primary DNS server
Figure 13-6 shows an example of a DHCP lease for an Ethernet 0/1 interface.
