dhcp-snooping

Required

By default, the DHCP snooping function
is disabled.

After DHCP snooping is enabled on an S3100 Ethernet switch, clients connected with this switch

cannot obtain IP addresses dynamically through BOOTP.

z

You are not recommended to configure both the DHCP snooping and selective Q-in-Q function on

an S3100-EI switch, which may result in the DHCP snooping to function abnormally.

Configuring DHCP Snooping Trusted/Untrusted Ports

Operation

Command

Description

Enter system view

system-view

Enter Ethernet port view

as a trusted port

dhcp-snooping trust

Required

By default, after DHCP snooping is
enabled, all ports of the S3100-EI switch
are untrusted ports.

z

Only the S3100-EI series among S3100 series switches support the configuration of DHCP

snooping trusted ports.S3100-SI series Ethernet switches do not support the configuration of

DHCP snooping trusted ports. That is, after DHCP snooping is enabled, all ports of the S3100-SI

series Ethernet switches are trusted ports.

z

After DHCP snooping is enabled, all ports of an S3100-EI switch are untrusted ports. You need to

specify the port of the S3100-EI switch connected to the valid DHCP server as trusted to ensure

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

DHCP clients must be in the same VLAN.
