Length of the remote-ID type
In the port field of the circuit ID suboption, the port numbers start at 3. For example, on a
Catalyst 3750-E switch with 24 10/100/1000 ports and four small form-factor pluggable (SFP) module
slots, port 3 is the Gigabit Ethernet 1/0/1 port, port 4 is the Gigabit Ethernet 1/0/2 port, and so forth.
Port 27 is the SFP module slot Gigabit Ethernet1/0/25, and so forth.
Figure 22-2 shows the packet formats for the remote-ID suboption and the circuit-ID suboption when
the default suboption configuration is used. For the circuit-ID suboption, the module number
corresponds to the switch number in the stack. The switch uses the packet formats when you globally
enable DHCP snooping and enter the ip dhcp snooping information option global configuration
command.

Figure 22-3 shows the packet formats for user-configured remote-ID and circuit-ID suboptions The
switch uses these packet formats when DHCP snooping is globally enabled and when the ip dhcp
snooping information option format remote-id global configuration command and the ip dhcp
snooping vlan information option format-type circuit-id string interface configuration command are
entered.
