RX1000/RX1100™
The Servers field configures the list of DHCP servers to which DHCP/BOOTP requests will be
forwarded.
Note
In general, the DHCP servers configured here will themselves need to be configured to serve
the subnets from which DHCP/BOOTP client requests will be forwarded. Refer to
for a brief discussion of the DHCP server configuration required to support Relay
Agents.
The Interfaces field selects the network interfaces on which the relay agent will listen for DHCP/
BOOTP requests. Select both the network interface to which clients and servers are attached.
Note
ROX allows the use of DHCP relay over GRE tunnels and PPP/Frame Relay interfaces for cases
in which the DHCP server resides behind the far endpoint of the GRE tunnel or WAN link. In case
of GRE, it is mandatory that the GRE interface have the 'Tunnel IP address' parameter configured.
Not setting this parameter will result in a functional GRE configuration, but DHCP relay will not
work over the tunnel.
The Save button will save the configuration permanently.
The Apply Configuration button will restart the DHCP Relay Agent with the saved configuration.
