CHAPTER 6
Tutorials
This chapter provides some examples of using the Web Configurator to set up and use the Switch.
The tutorial describes:
• How to Use DHCP Relay Per VLAN on the Switch
6.1 How to Use DHCP Relay Per VLAN on the Switch
This tutorial describes how to configure your Switch to forward DHCP client requests from a client to
a DHCP server in a specific VLAN. 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 (say 172.16.1.18) and want to have it
assign a specific IP address (say 192.168.2.3) 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 and the DHCP
server connects to port 18. Both port 2 and port 18 are in VLAN 102.
Figure 22 Tutorial: DHCP Relay Per VLAN Scenario
6.1.2 Creating a VLAN
Follow the steps below to configure ports 2 and 18 as a member of VLAN 102.
1 Access the Web Configurator through the Switch’s management port.
