Chapter 10 Configuring Address Pools

On-Demand Address Pool Manager

Defining DHCP ODAPs as the Global Default Pooling Mechanism

To specify on-demand address pooling as the global default mechanism, enter the following command
in global configuration mode:

Note

The DHCP server needs to be able to distinguish between a normal DHCP address request and an address
request for a PPP client. For more information, see the

“Address Allocation for PPP Sessions” section

on page 10-5

.

Example 10-1

enables on-demand address pooling as the mechanism to service address requests from

PPP clients. The locally configured VRF-associated DHCP pool named Green_pool provides the
IP addresses.

Configuring the DHCP Pool as an ODAP

To configure a DHCP pool as an on-demand address pool, enter the following commands beginning in
global configuration mode:

Example 10-2

configures two on-demand DHCP address pools: green_pool and red_pool. The

green_pool address pool is associated with the Green VRF and the red_pool address pool is associated
with the Red VRF. Both pools obtain their subnet addresses from an external DHCP server.

Command

Purpose

Router(config)# ip address-pool dhcp-pool

Enables on-demand address pooling as the global default IP
address mechanism for PPP remote access sessions into MPLS
VPNs. Locally configured VRF-associated DHCP pools allocate
IP addresses.

Command

Purpose

Step 1

Router(config)# ip dhcp pool name

Configures a DHCP address pool on a Cisco IOS DHCP server
and enters DHCP pool configuration mode.

Step 2

Router(config-dhcp)# vrf name

Associates the address pool with a VRF.

Step 3

Router(config-dhcp)# origin {dhcp | aaa |

ipcp

} [subnet size initial size [autogrow

size]]

Configures an address pool as an on-demand address pool.

Step 4

Router(config-dhcp)# utilizationmark low

percentage-number

Sets the low utilization mark of the pool size. The default value is
zero percent.

Step 5

Router(config-dhcp)# utilization mark

high

percentage-number

Sets the high utilization mark of the pool size. The default value
is 100 percent.
