You need to specify the ports connected to the authorized DHCP servers as trusted to ensure that

DHCP clients can obtain valid IP addresses. The trusted port and the port connected to the DHCP

client must be in the same VLAN.

Currently, you can specify Layer 2 Ethernet interfaces and Layer 2 aggregate interfaces as trusted

ports. For details about aggregate interfaces, refer to Link Aggregation Configuration.
