Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

This command applies to DHCP relay agents. Generally, a DHCP relay agent serves multiple DHCP servers. To manage these DHCP servers in a unified manner, run the dhcp server group command to create a DHCP server group. The DHCP server group then assigns IP addresses to users using the DHCP relay agent.

Follow-up Procedure

Run the dhcp-server command to add DHCP servers to the DHCP server group.
Run the dhcp relay server-select command in the interface view to specify a DHCP server group for the DHCP relay agent.

Precautions

You can configure a maximum of 32 DHCP server groups in the system, and a maximum of 20 DHCP servers in a DHCP server group.

Example

# Create a DHCP server group named dhcp-srv1.

[HUAWEI] dhcp server group dhcp-srv1
