Table 85 DHCP Snooping Port Configure
LABEL DESCRIPTION
Port This field displays the port number. If you configure the * port,
the settings are applied to all of the ports.
Server Trusted state Select whether this port is a trusted port (Trusted) or an
untrusted port (Untrusted).
Trusted ports are connected to DHCP servers or other switches,
and the Switch discards DHCP packets from trusted ports only if
the rate at which DHCP packets arrive is too high.
Untrusted ports are connected to subscribers, and the Switch
discards DHCP packets from untrusted ports in the following
situations:
The packet is a DHCP server packet (for example, OFFER, ACK,
or NACK).
The source MAC address and source IP address in the packet
do not match any of the current bindings.
The packet is a RELEASE or DECLINE packet, and the source
MAC address and source port do not match any of the current
bindings.
The rate at which DHCP packets arrive is too high.
Rate (pps) Specify the maximum number for DHCP packets (1-2048) that
the Switch receives from each port each second. The Switch
discards any additional DHCP packets. Enter 0 to disable this
limit, which is recommended for trusted ports.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time
memory. The Switch loses these changes if it is turned off or loses
power, so use the Save link on the top navigation panel to save
your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done
configuring.
Cancel Click this to reset the values in this screen to their last-saved
values.
