ip dhcp ping packets
Use this command to specify the number of packets, in a range from 2-10, that a DHCP
server sends to a pool address as part of a ping operation. By default, the number of packets
sent to a pool address is 2, which is the smallest allowed number when sending packets.
Setting the number of packets to 0 disables this command.
no ip dhcp ping packets
This command prevents the server from pinging pool addresses and sets the number of
packets to 0.
service dhcp
This command enables the DHCP server.
no service dhcp
This command disables the DHCP server.
