DHCP Server The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) allows the Switch to designate IP addresses, subnet masks, default gateways and other IP parameters to devices that request this information. This occurs when a DHCP enabled device is booted on or attached to the locally attached network. This device is known as the DHCP client and when enabled, it will emit query messages on the network before any IP parameters are set. When the DHCP server receives this request, it will allocate an IP address to the client. The DHCP client may be then utilize the IP address allocated by the DHCP server as its local configuration. The user can configure many DHCP related parameters that it will utilize on its locally attached network, to control and limit the IP settings of clients desiring an automatic IP configuration, such as the lease time of the allocated IP address, the range of IP addresses that will be allowed in its DHCP pool, the ability to exclude various IP addresses 56
