6.1 How to Use DHCP Relay on the Switch
This tutorial describes how to configure your Switch to forward DHCP client
requests to a specific DHCP server. The DHCP server can then assign a specific IP
address based on the information in the DHCP requests.
6.1.1 DHCP Relay Tutorial Introduction
In this example, you have configured your DHCP server (192.168.2.3) and want to
have it assign a specific IP address (say 172.16.1.18) to DHCP client A based on
the system name, VLAN ID and port number in the DHCP request. Client A
connects to the Switch’s port 2 in VLAN 102.
