Usage Guide
When some DHCP clients request the DHCP server to assign IP addresses, they use their client IDs
rather then their hardware addresses. The client ID consists of the media type, MAC addresses and
interface name. For example, the MAC address is 00d0.f822.33b4, the interface name is
GigabitEthernet 0/1, and the corresponding client ID is
0100.d0f8.2233.b467.6967.6162.6974.4574.6865.726e.6574.302f.31, where, 01 denotes the type of
the Ethernet media.
The 67.6967.6162.6974.4574.6865.726e.6574.302f.31 is the hexadecimal code of GigabitEthernet0/1.
For the definition of the media code, see the section "Address Resolution Protocol Parameters" in the
RFC1700.
This command is used only when the DHCP is defined by manual binding.
