6.2.1 List of configuration commands

client-name

Specifies the host name for a client (optional information). The host name specified by this command is used by the client when the DHCP server distributes a static IP address to the client.

default-router

Specifies the router for a client (optional information). From this list, the server selects the IP address of the default router available for the client on the subnet and distributes it to the client. [6.2.2 Configure IP addressing of the router used by the client, as in Configure to Distribute IP to Clients.

dns-server

Specifies the list of the IP addresses of the DNS servers for a client (optional information). From this list, the server selects the IP address of a DNS server available for the client and distributes it to the client. [6.2.4 Set IP of DNS servers used by the client. For example, specify the settings for dynamic DNS linkage.

domain-name

Specifies the domain name for a client (optional information). The domain name specified by using this command is used by the client as the preferred domain name and DNS resolves it to the IP address distributed to the client. [6.2.4 Set the domain name that the client uses for hostname resolution, as described in "Setting for dynamic DNS linkage".

hardware-address

Specifies the MAC address of a client when a static IP address is distributed to the client. This command is used together with the host command. [6.2.3 Configure MAC addressing of the client, such as "Configure to distribute static IP to the client."

host

Specifies the static IP address to be assigned to a client when a static IP address is distributed to the client. This command is used together with the hardware-address command. [6.2.3 Configure IP addressing that the client uses, such as Distribute static IP to clients.

ip dhcp dynamic-dns-update

Specifies whether to link dynamic DNS when distributing IP addresses. [6.2.4 Specify this setting to enable dynamic DNS linkage as described in "Setting when linking with dynamic DNS".

ip dhcp excluded-address

Specifies the range of IP addresses in the DHCP address pool specified by using the network command that are to be excluded from distribution. [6.2.2 Configure IP addresses that are excluded from distribution to clients in the address ranges of the network, such as "Configure to distribute IP to clients."

ip dhcp key

Sets the authentication key to be used for authentication on the DNS server when dynamic DNS is used.

ip dhcp pool

Sets DHCP address pool information.

ip dhcp zone

Sets the information about the zone where DNS updating is performed when a dynamic DNS server is linked. [6.2.4 Specify the zone-information of the domain to be linked in the "Dynamic DNS linkage settings".

lease

Specifies the default lease time for the IP address distributed to a client. [6.2.2 Set the lease times for IP addresses used by the clients, as in Configure to Distribute IP to Clients.

max-lease

Specifies the maximum lease time allowed when a client requests an IP address with a specific lease time.

netbios-name-server

Specifies the list of the IP addresses of the NetBIOS name servers (NBNS/WINS servers) for a client. From this list, the DHCP server selects the IP address of the NetBIOS name server available for the client and distributes it to the client.

netbios-node-type

Specifies the NetBIOS node type for a client (optional information). A NetBIOS node type indicates the name resolution method used by the client when NetBIOS over TCP/IP is used.

network

Specifies the subnet of the network to which an IP address is dynamically distributed by DHCP. IP addresses whose host name portion is set to all 0s or all 1s are not included in the DHCP address pool. [6.2.2 Configure the networking to distribute IP by DHCP, as in Configure to Distribute IP to Clients.

service dhcp

Specifies the interface on which a DHCP server is enabled.

Only the VLAN interface with this configuration receives DHCP packets. [6.2.2 Configure VLAN interfaces to which DHCP client is connected, as in Configure to Distribute IP to Clients.
