4-7
4.5.3.3 Configuring the Default
Gateway for the DHCP Client
The IP address of the default gateway must be in the same network as the IP
address of the DHCP client.
To configure the default gateway for the DHCP client, execute the following
command in the address pool configuration mode:
Command Function
DES-7200(dhcp-config)#
default-router address
[address2…address8]
Configure the default gateway.
4.5.3.4 Configuring the Address Lease
Period
The lease for the address that the DHCP server assigns to the client is one day
by default. The client should request to renew when the lease period is going to
expire. Otherwise, it cannot use this address when the lease period expires.
To configure the address lease period, execute the following command in the
address pool configuration mode:
Command Function
DES-7200(dhcp-config)# lease {days
[hours] [ minutes] | infinite}
Configure the address lease period.
4.5.3.5 Configuring the Domain Name
of the DHCP Client
The domain name of the DHCP client can be specified. In this way, the domain
name suffix will be automatically added to the incomplete host name to form a
complete host name when the DHCP client accesses the network resources
using the host name.
To configure the domain name of the DHCP client, execute the following
command in the address pool configuration mode:
Command Function
DES-7200(dhcp-config)#
domain-name domain
Configure the domain name.
