to not verify the MAC addresses.

Command History

Usage Guidelines

In a service-provider network, when a switch receives a packet from a DHCP client on an untrusted port,
it automatically verifies that the source MAC address and the DHCP client hardware address match. If
the addresses match, the switch forwards the packet. If the addresses do not match, the switch drops the
packet.

Examples

This example shows how to disable the MAC address verification:

Switch(config)# no ip dhcp snooping verify mac-address

You can verify your settings by entering the show ip dhcp snooping user EXEC command.
