Usage Guidelines
Follow the steps mentioned below to create a DHCP User Class:
1. Create a DHCP class named
RFS7000DHCPclass. The switch supports a maximum of 32 DHCP classes.
RFS7000(config)#ip dhcp class RFS7000DHCPclass
RFS7000(config-dhcpclass)#
2. Create a USER class named MC800. The privilege mode changes to (config-dhcpclass). The switch
supports a maximum of 8 Users classes per DHCP class.
RFS7000(config-dhcpclass)#option user-class MC800
RFS7000(config-dhcpclass)#
3. Create a Pool named WID, using (config)# mode.
RFS7000(config)#ip dhcp pool WID
RFS7000(config-dhcp)#
4. Associate the DHCP class, created in Step 1, with the pool created in Step 3. The switch supports
association of only 8 CDHCP classes with a pool.
RFS7000(config-dhcp)#class RFS7000DHCPclass
RFS7000(config-dhcp-class)#
5. The switch moves to a new mode (config-dhcp-class). Use this mode to add address range to be
used for the DHCP class, associated with the pool.
RFS7000(config-dhcp-class)#address range 11.22.33.44
Example
