Remarks

Enter system view

system-view

Enter common address pool view

dhcp server ip-pool pool-name

Specify the IP address of the binding

static-bind ip-address ip-address

[ mask-length | mask mask ]

Required

No IP addresses are statically

bound by default.

Specify the MAC

address

static-bind mac-address

mac-address

Specify the

MAC address

or client ID

Specify the client ID

static-bind client-identifier

client-identifier

Required to configure either of

the two

Neither is bound statically by

default.

z

Use the static-bind ip-address command together with static-bind mac-address or static-bind

client-identifier to accomplish a static binding configuration.

z

In a DHCP address pool, if you execute the static-bind mac-address command before the

static-bind client-identifier command, the latter will overwrite the former and vice versa.

z

If you use the static-bind ip-address, static-bind mac-address, or static-bind client-identifier

command repeatedly in the DHCP address pool, the new configuration will overwrite the previous

one.

z

The IP address of the static binding cannot be an interface address of the DHCP server.

Otherwise, an IP address conflict may occur and the bound client cannot obtain an IP address

correctly.

z

The ID of the static binding must be identical to the ID displayed by using the display dhcp client

verbose command on the client. Otherwise, the client cannot obtain an IP address.

z

You need to configure the static binding of a DHCP client’s ID to IP address, or the static binding

of a BOOTP client's MAC to IP address on the DHCP server; otherwise, the DHCP or BOOTP

client cannot obtain a static IP address.

z

If the interfaces on a DHCP client share the same MAC address, you need to specify the client ID,

rather than MAC address, in a static binding to identify the requesting interface; otherwise, the

client may fail to obtain an IP address.

Configuring dynamic address allocation

You need to specify one and only one address range using a mask for the dynamic address allocation.

To avoid address conflicts, the DHCP server excludes IP addresses used by the gateway or FTP

server from dynamic allocation.

You can specify the lease duration for a DHCP address pool different from others, and a DHCP

address pool can only have the same lease duration. A lease does not enjoy the inheritance attribute.

Follow these steps to configure dynamic address allocation for a common address pool:
