z

To support Option 82, it is required to perform related configuration on both the DHCP server and
relay agent. Since the DHCP server configuration varies with devices, it is not mentioned here.

z

If the handling strategy of the DHCP relay agent is configured as replace, you need to configure a
padding format for Option 82. If the handling strategy is keep or drop, you need not configure any
padding format.

z

If sub-option 1 (node identifier) of Option 82 is padded with the device name (sysname) of a node,
the device name must contain no spaces. Otherwise, the DHCP relay agent will drop the message.

DHCP Relay Agent Configuration Example

Network requirements

VLAN-interface 1 on the DHCP relay agent (AC) connects to the network where DHCP clients reside.
The IP address of VLAN-interface 1 is 10.10.1.1/24 and IP address of VLAN-interface 2 is 10.1.1.2/24
that communicates with the DHCP server 10.1.1.1/24. As shown in the figure below, AC forwards
messages between DHCP clients and the DHCP server.
