Specifying a VPN ID

To specify a VPN ID, enter the following commands beginning in global configuration mode:

Step 2

Router(config)# interface type number

Specifies an interface and enters interface configuration mode.

Step 3

Router(config-if)# ip helper-address vrf

name [global] address

Forwards UDP broadcasts, including BOOTP, received on an
interface.

If the DHCP server resides in a VPN or global space that is
different from the VPN, the vrf name or global options allow you
to specify the name of the VRF or global space where the
DHCP server resides.

The vrf name argument is the virtual routing and forwarding
(VRF) instance for the VPN.

The global argument is the global routing table.

The address argument is the destination broadcast or host address
to be used when forwarding UDP broadcasts. You can configure
more than one helper address per interface.
