Configuring a DHCP Server for a Network
If you so choose, you can print and fill out Table 13-2 and refer to it while
configuring the DHCP server on your router.
Figure 13-8 illustrates a simplified example of a router acting as a DHCP server
for two local networks.
1. Move to the global configuration mode context and exclude all static
address on DHCP subnets.
Syntax: ip dhcp-server excluded <A.B.C.D>
You can also exclude a range of addresses.
Syntax: ip dhcp-server excluded <first A.B.C.D> <last A.B.C.D>
2. If you are configuring DHCP for a range of subnets, create a parent DHCP
server pool from the global configuration mode context. Otherwise, move
to step 5.
Syntax: ip dhcp-server pool <parent poolname>
other configurations lease in days, hours, and
minutes
