Configuring DHCP Services
3-7
The Technician Interface allows you to modify parameters by issuing set and
commit commands with the MIB object ID. This process is equivalent to
modifying parameters using Site Manager. For more information about using the
Technician Interface to access the MIB, refer to Using Technician Interface
Software.
To enable DHCP on an interface, complete the following steps:
1. Enable BOOTP on the interface.
Refer to “Enabling BOOTP on an Interface” in Chapter 2 for instructions.
2. Access the BOOTP Relay Agent Interface Table window (refer to
Figure 2-4).
Refer to “Editing BOOTP Relay Agent Parameters” in Chapter 2 for
instructions.
3. Set the Pass Through Mode parameter to DHCP, or BOOTP and DHCP.
4. Click on Apply.
This action allows you to select DHCP or BOOTP and DHCP for the Pass
Through Mode parameter in other windows.
5. Edit the other parameters in this window.
Refer to “Editing BOOTP Relay Agent Parameters” in Chapter 2 for
guidelines.
Accessing and Editing DHCP Parameters
When you have enabled DHCP services on a router, you can configure the router
software for your specific requirements. Use the remaining sections in this chapter
as a guide.
Specifying Interfaces That Receive and Relay DHCP Packets
You must specify a forwarding route for DHCP packets. You can do so by defining
a relationship between an interface you configured to receive DHCP packets and
an interface you want to transmit DHCP packets.
Caution: The Technician Interface does not verify that the value you enter for a
parameter is valid. Entering an invalid value can corrupt your configuration.
