5.13.4 DHCP Snooping Commands
DHCP snooping allows a switch to protect a network from rogue DHCP servers or other devices which send port-related
information to a DHCP server. This information can be useful in tracking an IP address back to a physical port. This section
describes commands used to configure DHCP snooping.

ip dhcp snooping Enables DHCP snooping globally GC
ip dhcp snooping vlan Enables DHCP snooping on the specified VLAN GC
ip dhcp snooping trust Configures the specified interface as trusted IC

Command Usage
Network traffic may be disrupted when malicious DHCP messages are received from an outside source. DHCP snooping
is used to filter DHCP messages received on an unsecure interface from outside the network or firewall. When DHCP
snooping is enabled globally by this command, and enabled on a VLAN interface by the ip dhcp snooping vlan command
(page 4-148), DHCP messages received on an untrusted interface (as specified by the no ip dhcp snooping trust
command, page 4-149) from a device not listed in the DHCP snooping table will be dropped.
When enabled, DHCP messages entering an untrusted interface are filtered based upon dynamic entries learned via
DHCP snooping.
Table entries are only learned for untrusted interfaces. Each entry includes a MAC address, IP address, lease time, VLAN
