The DHCP/BOOTP server uses the relayed network information to decide from which subnet
the address should be allocated. Therefore, the DHCP/BOOTP server must be configured to
allocate addresses from the relayed networks configured on the C360.
DHCP/BOOTP Relay in C360 is configurable per VLAN and allows you to specify two DHCP/
BOOTP servers. In this case, it duplicates each request, and sends it to both servers. This
provides redundancy and prevents the failure of a single server from blocking hosts from
loading.
You can enable or disable or DHCP/BOOTP Relay in C360.
BOOTP/DHCP CLI Commands
NetBIOS Re-broadcast Configuration
NetBIOS Overview
Short for Network Basic Input Output System, an application programming interface (API) that
augments the DOS BIOS by adding special functions for local-area networks (LANs). Almost all
LANs for PCs are based on the NetBIOS. Some LAN manufacturers have even extended it,
adding additional network capabilities.
You can configure the C360 to relay netbios UDP broadcast packets. This feature is used for
applications such as WINS that use broadcast but may need to communicate with stations on
other subnets or VLANs.
In order to... Use the following command...
Enable or disable relaying of
bootp and dhcp requests to the
BOOTP/DHCP server [no] ip bootp-dhcp relay
Add or remove a BOOTP/DHCP
server to handle BOOTP/DHCP
requests received by this
interface [no] ip bootp-dhcp server
Select the networks from which
the bootp/dhcp server shall
allocate an address [no] ip bootp-dhcp network
