situation, such as a hotel. The enhanced solution allows hotel guests to

Snooping

connect to the network without having to change their IP settings, while

still ensuring privacy for each guest. Typically some guests will obtain their

IP address from the hotel's DHCP server and others will have statically

configured IP addresses in their PCs.

The solution is designed to interoperate with a specialised Access Router

that is able to deal with the full range of IP addresses that will be in use on

the guests' PCs. The Nomadix Access Gateway (from www.nomadix.com)

is an example of such a specialised access router.

Configuration of the new feature is similar to the existing MAC-forced

forwarding configuration. On each edge switch, you also need to enter the

following new command before enabling DHCP snooping:

disable dhcpsnooping ipfiltering

You also need to turn on ARP security and allow authorised clients to send

only unicast packets, by entering the following commands:

enable dhcpsnooping arpsecurity

enable dhcpsnooping strictunicast

This enhancement also introduces the ability to add MACFF servers with

static MAC addresses, rather than relying on ARP to determine them based

on IP addresses. To do this, enter the command:

add macff server mac=macaddr
