Chapter 11: AI2524 Sync PPP Configuration Steps

Define DHCP as the Global Default Mechanism

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) specifies these components:

zA DHCP server. A host-based DHCP server configured to accept and process requests for temporary IP addresses.

zA DHCP proxy-client. An access server configured to arbitrate DHCP calls between the DHCP server and the DHCP client. Th DHCP client-proxy feature manages a pool of IP addresses avail- able to dial-in clients without a known IP address.

In global configuration mode, enable DHCP as the global default mechanism:

1.Specify DHCP client-proxy as the global default mechanism. ip address-pooldhcp-proxy-client

2.(Optional) Specify the IP address of a DHCP server for the proxy client to use.

ip dhcp-server [ ip-address name]

You can provide up to ten DHCP servers for the proxy-client (the router or access server) to use. DHCP servers provide temporary IP ad- dresses.

Define Local Address Pooling as the Global Default Mechanism

In global configuration mode, define local pooling as the global de- fault mechanism:

1.Specify local pooling as the global default mechanism. ip address-pool local

2.Create one or more local IP address pools.

ip local pool {default poolname} low-ip- address [high-ip-address]

If no other pool is defined, the local pool called default is used.
