DES-7200 Configuration Guide Chapter 9 DHCP Snooping Configuration
9-5
9.1.8 Other
Precautions on
DHCP
Snooping
Configuration
The DHCP Snooping function and the DHCP Option82 function of 802.1xare
mutually exclusive. That is, you can not enable the DHCP Snooping function and
the DHCP Option82 function of 802.1x at the same time.
DHCP Snooping snoops only the DHCP process of users. ARP Inspection is
necessary to restrict users to use the IP address assinged by the DHCP protocol
for Internet access. However, ARP Inspection needs to check all ARP messages,
which will influence the overall performance of the switch.
When the DHCP client with Hybrid interface connects to the DHCP Server
through untagged VLAN, the share VLAN should be enabled and the untagged
VLAN should be set to be share VLAN. For the number of share VLANs
supported, refer to Section Share VLAN Configuration of Configuration Guide.
