Parameters
relay: Enables the DHCP relay agent on the interface.
server: Enables the DHCP server on the interface.
Usage guidelines
Before changing the DHCP server mode to the DHCP relay agent mode on an interface, use the
reset dhcp server ip-in-use command to remove address bindings and authorized ARP entries.
These bindings might conflict with ARP entries that are created after the DHCP relay agent is
enabled.
Examples
# Enable the DHCP relay agent on VLAN-interface 2.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface vlan-interface 2
[Sysname-Vlan-interface2] dhcp select relay
