9.3.3 DHCP Class Policy Configuration
Setting the DHCP Server Configuration
The DHCP server assigns IP addresses to DHCP enabled wireless clients based on user class option names. Clients with a
defined set of user class option names are identified by their user class name. The DHCP server can assign IP addresses from
as many IP address ranges as defined by the administrator. The DHCP user class associates a particular range of IP addresses
to a device in such a way that all devices of that type are assigned IP addresses from the defined range.
Refer to the DHCP Class Policy screen to review existing DHCP class names and their current multiple user class
designations. Multiple user class options enable a user class to transmit multiple option values to DHCP servers supporting
multiple user class options. Either add a new class policy, edit the configuration of an existing policy or permanently delete a
policy as required.
To review DHCP class policies:
1. Select the Class Policy tab and ensure the Activate DHCP Server Policy button remains selected. This option must
remain selected to implement the configuration as part of the access point profile.
