Configuring Basic Functions of DHCP Snooping
Pre-configuration Tasks
DHCP snooping allows DHCP clients to obtain IP addresses from authorized DHCP servers, and records mappings between IP addresses and MAC addresses of DHCP clients to a binding table.
Before configuring DHCP snooping, configure the DHCP function. (For the DHCP configuration, see DHCP Configuration in the CloudEngine 12800 and 12800E Series Switches Configuration Guide - IP Services.)
