DHCP and UDP Commands
This chapter describes the Run-Time CLI commands that are used to configure
DHCP and UDP functions in the Passport 8000 Series switch. The chapter
includes sections about the following command groups used to configure routing
characteristics:
• DHCP Relay Commands
• UDP Commands
DHCP Relay Commands
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), an extension of the Bootstrap
Protocol (BootP), is used to dynamically provide host configuration information
to the workstations. Use the port DHCP relay commands to set DHCP relay
behavior on a port and the VLAN DHCP commands to set DHCP relay behavior
on a VLAN.
DHCP relay must be enabled on the path for port or VLAN configuration to take
effect.
