Applying an address pool to an interface

About applying an address pool to an interface

Perform this task to apply a DHCP address pool to an interface.

Upon receiving a DHCP request from the interface, the DHCP server performs address allocation in the following ways:

Procedure

  1. Enter system view.

    system-view

  2. Enter interface view.

    interface interface-type interface-number

  3. Apply an address pool to the interface.

    dhcp server apply ip-pool pool-name

    By default, no address pool is applied to an interface.

    If the applied address pool does not exist, the DHCP server fails to perform dynamic address allocation.
