Usage Guidelines

The DHCP server identifies the devices according to the Option60 field in the DHCP request packet. You can run the dhcp client class-id class-id command to customize the Option60 field in the DHCP request packet sent from the DHCP client.

After you run the dhcp client class-id class-id command in the VLANIF interface view, the device that functions as the DHCP client fills the set Option60 in the DHCP request packet on the VLANIF interface.

Example

# Set the class-id of a DHCP client to huawei on VLANIF100.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] interface vlanif 100
[HUAWEI-Vlanif100] dhcp client class-id huawei

# Set the class-id of a DHCP client to huawei on GE0/0/1.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] interface gigabitethernet 0/0/1
[HUAWEI-GigabitEthernet0/0/1] undo portswitch
[HUAWEI-GigabitEthernet0/0/1] dhcp client class-id huawei
