Configuring BOOTP / DHCP Relay
If a DHCP / BOOTP server is not located in the same subnet with a host, you can
configure this switch to forward any host configuration queries to a server located on
another subnet or on another network. Depending on the configuration setup, the switch
either:
• Forwards the packet to a preferred server as defined in the switch configuration using
unicast routing, or
• Broadcasts the DHCP Request again to another directly attached IP subnet specified
in the switch configuration.
Specify the address for any DHCP server, or specify the subnet address for an
outbound IP interface already configured on this switch (chapter 3 “Subnet
Configuration”) as described in the following screens.
Parameter Description
Index Server Address Used to define any preferred DHCP servers or the outbound
subnetwork for relaying a DHCP request broadcast. (Up to five
entries are permitted.)
Note:
To add a Relay Server, specify the IP address in the dialog box at the bottom of
the screen, and press Add. To delete a Relay Server, click on the edit icon ( ) for
the required entry, and then press Delete.
