43.5.2 Example: DHCP Relay for Two VLANs
The following example displays two VLANs (VIDs 1 and 2) for a campus network. Two DHCP servers
are installed to serve each VLAN. The system is set up to forward DHCP requests from the
dormitory rooms (VLAN 1) to the DHCP server with an IP address of 192.168.1.100. Requests from
the academic buildings (VLAN 2) are sent to the other DHCP server with an IP address of
172.16.10.100.

LABEL DESCRIPTION
VID Enter the ID number of the VLAN you want to configure here.
Port Enter the number of port(s) to which you want to apply the specified DHCP option 82
profile.
You can enter multiple ports separated by (no space) comma (,) or hyphen (-) for a
range. For example, enter “3-5” for ports 3, 4, and 5. Enter “3,5,7” for ports 3, 5, and 7.
In stacking mode, the first number represents the slot and the second the port number.
Enter 1/1-1/ 24,2/28 for ports 1 to 24 for the Switch in slot 1 and port 28 for the Switch
in slot 2, for example.
Option 82 Profile Select a pre-defined DHCP option 82 profile that the Switch applies to the specified
port(s) in this VLAN. The Switch adds the Circuit ID sub-option and/ or Remote ID sub-
option specified in the profile to DHCP requests that it relays to a DHCP server.
Note: The profile you select here has priority over the one you select in the DHCP >
DHCPv4 > VLAN screen.
