Because the DHCP relay agent and server are on different subnets, you need to configure a static route

or dynamic routing protocol to make them reachable to each other.

DHCP Relay Agent Option 82 Support Configuration Example

Network requirements

z

As shown in

Figure 1-3

, Enable Option 82 on the DHCP relay agent (Switch A).

z

Configure the handling strategy for DHCP requests containing Option 82 as replace.

z

Configure the padding content for the circuit ID sub-option as company001 and for the remote ID

sub-option as device001.

z

Switch A forwards DHCP requests to the DHCP server (Switch B) after replacing Option 82 in the

requests, so that the DHCP clients can obtain IP addresses.

Configuration procedure

# Specify IP addresses for the interfaces (omitted).

# Enable DHCP.

<SwitchA> system-view

[SwitchA] dhcp enable

# Add DHCP server 10.1.1.1 into DHCP server group 1.

[SwitchA] dhcp relay server-group 1 ip 10.1.1.1

# Enable the DHCP relay agent on VLAN-interface 1.

[SwitchA] interface vlan-interface 1

[SwitchA-Vlan-interface1] dhcp select relay

# Correlate VLAN-interface 1 to DHCP server group 1.

[SwitchA-Vlan-interface1] dhcp relay server-select 1

# Enable the DHCP relay agent to support Option 82, and perform Option 82-related configurations.

[SwitchA-Vlan-interface1] dhcp relay information enable

[SwitchA-Vlan-interface1] dhcp relay information strategy replace

[SwitchA-Vlan-interface1] dhcp relay information circuit-id string company001

[SwitchA-Vlan-interface1] dhcp relay information remote-id string device001

You need to perform corresponding configurations on the DHCP server to make the Option 82

configurations function normally.
