DHCP Snooping
VLAN Configuration
Use the Security > DHCP Snooping (Configure VLAN) page to enable or disable
DHCP snooping on specific VLANs.
Command Usage
◆
When DHCP snooping is enabled globally on the switch, and enabled on the
specified VLAN, DHCP packet filtering will be performed on any untrusted ports
within the VLAN.
◆
When the DHCP snooping is globally disabled, DHCP snooping can still be
configured for specific VLANs, but the changes will not take effect until DHCP
snooping is globally re-enabled.
◆
When DHCP snooping is globally enabled, and DHCP snooping is then disabled
on a VLAN, all dynamic bindings learned for this VLAN are removed from the
binding table.
