23.3  DHCP Snooping Configure
Use this screen to enable DHCP snooping on the Switch (not on specific VLAN), specify the VLAN where 
the default DHCP server is located, and configure the DHCP snooping database. The DHCP snooping 
database stores the current bindings on a secure, external TFTP server so that they are still available after 
a restart. To open this screen, click Advanced Application > DHCP Snooping > Configure.
Binding collisions This field displays the number of bindings the Switch ignored because the Switch 
already had a binding with the same MAC address and VLAN ID.
Invalid interfaces This field displays the number of bindings the Switch ignored because the port number 
was a trusted interface or does not exist anymore.
Parse failures This field displays the number of bindings the Switch ignored because the Switch was 
unable to understand the binding in the DHCP binding database.
Expired leases This field displays the number of bindings the Switch ignored because the lease time 
had already expired.
Unsupported vlans This field displays the number of bindings the Switch ignored because the VLAN ID does 
not exist anymore.
Last ignored time This field displays the last time the Switch ignored any bindings for any reason from the 
DHCP binding database.

counters
This section displays the reasons the Switch has ignored bindings any time it read
