   [Router-Vlanif101] quit

2. Configure a DHCP server to assign IP addresses to STAs and specify the gateway for the STAs.
   # On SwitchB, configure VLANIF 101 to assign IP addresses to STAs and set the default gateway address of STAs to 10.23.101.2.

   Configure the DNS server as required. The common methods are as follows:

   • In interface address pool scenarios, run the dhcp server dns-list ip-address &<1-8> command in the VLANIF interface view.
   • In global address pool scenarios, run the dns-list ip-address &<1-8> command in the IP address pool view.

   [SwitchB] dhcp enable
   [SwitchB] interface vlanif 101
   [SwitchB-Vlanif101] ip address 10.23.101.1 24
   [SwitchB-Vlanif101] dhcp select interface
   [SwitchB-Vlanif101] dhcp server gateway-list 10.23.101.2
   [SwitchB-Vlanif101] quit
