8.8.7 DHCP

Snooping

For enhanced security, the hiD 6615 S223/S323 provides the DHCP snooping feature.
The DHCP snooping filters untrusted DHCP messages and maintains a DHCP snooping
binding table. An untrusted message is a message received from outside the network,
and an untrusted interface is an interface configured to receive DHCP messages from
outside the network.

The DHCP snooping basically permits all the trusted messages received from within the
network and filters untrusted messages. In case of untrusted messages, all the binding
entries are recorded in a DHCP snooping binding table. This table contains a hardware
address, IP address, lease time, VLAN ID, interface, etc.

It also gives you a way to differentiate between untrusted interfaces connected to the
end-user and trusted interfaces connected to the DHCP server or another switch.
