6.2.3 Configuring DHCP Relay
Follow the steps below to enable DHCP relay on the Switch and allow the Switch to
add relay agent information (such as the VLAN ID) to DHCP requests.
1 Click IP Application > DHCP and then the Global link to open the DHCP Relay
screen.
2 Select the Active check box.
3 Enter the DHCP server’s IP address (192.168.2.3 in this example) in the Remote
DHCP Server 1 field.
4 Select the Option 82 and the Information check boxes.
5 Click Apply to save your changes back to the run-time memory.
6 Click the Save link in the upper right corner of the web configurator to save your
configuration permanently.
7 The DHCP server can then assign a specific IP address based on the DHCP
request.
6.2.4 Troubleshooting
Check the client A’s IP address. If it did not receive the IP address 172.16.1.18,
make sure:
1 Client A is connected to the Switch’s port 2 in VLAN 102.
2 You configured the correct VLAN ID, port number and system name for DHCP relay
on both the DHCP server and the Switch.
