Configuring Centralized DHCP Scopes
When a centralized DHCP scope is configured, the following points are to be noted:
● The VC does not assign an IP address to the client and the DHCP traffic is directly
forwarded to the DHCP server.
● For Centralized, L2 clients, the VC bridges the DHCP traffic to the controller over the
VPN/GRE tunnel. The IP address is obtained from the DHCP server behind the controller
serving the VLAN/GRE of the client. This DHCP assignment mode also allows you to add
the DHCP option 82 to the DHCP traffic forwarded to the controller.
● For Centralized, L3 clients, the VC acts as a DHCP relay agent that forwards the DHCP
traffic to the DHCP server located either in the corporate or local network. The
Centralized, L3 VLAN IP is used as the source IP. The IP address is obtained from the
DHCP server
You can configure a centralized DHCP scope through the SCALANCE W UI or the CLI.

Enter a name for the DHCP scope.
Type Set the type as follows:
•
for the Centralized, L2 profile
•
for the Centralized, L3 profile
VLAN Specify a VLAN ID. To use this subnet, ensure that the VLAN ID specified
here is assigned to an SSID profile. For more information on SSID profile
configuration, see Configuring VLAN Settings for a WLAN SSID Profile on
page 86 and Configuring VLAN for a Wired Profile on page 106.
