Chapter 3: Configuring the Ethernet Network
Table 15. DHCP Server Parameter Descriptions (Continued)
Parameter | Explanation |
|
|
|
|
DHCP User Class | Leave the field blank if you want this access point |
| to respond to requests from any client. |
| Or enter the DHCP user class identifier as |
| defined in RFC 3004. When this access point |
| acts as a DHCP server, the access point offers |
| addresses to client requests only when the client |
| requests contain a matching user class identifier. |
|
|
DHCP Vendor | Leave the field blank if you want this access point |
Class | to respond to requests from any client. |
| Or enter the DHCP vendor class identifier as |
| defined in RFC 2132. When this access point |
| acts as a DHCP server, the access point offers |
| addresses to client requests only when the client |
| requests contains a matching vendor class |
| identifier. |
|
|
DHCP for Access | Determines which DHCP servers may be used by |
Point Network | access points and wireless devices: |
| Use Any Available DHCP Server: Access points |
| and wireless devices may receive DHCP |
| responses and addresses from any available |
| DHCP server. |
| Only Use Access Point DHCP Server: Access |
| points and any associated wireless devices may |
| receive DHCP responses and addresses only |
| from an access point DHCP server. Currently, the |
| DHCP server must be located in the root access |
| point. If this option is selected and the root |
| access point does not have a DHCP server |
| enabled, access points and wireless devices will |
| not be able to receive a DHCP address. You can |
| use this option, in combination with a DHCP user |
| class, to segment a network that has an existing |
| DHCP server and an access point DHCP server. |
