DHCP filtering

a maximum of 13 leases and ports 3 to 8 given 1 lease each. After that, no port could have its leases increased because the filter resource is completely used up.

Note: On Allied Telesis switches, IGMP snooping and MLD snooping are enabled by default, which occupy 2 filter entries. To dedicate 119 entries to DHCP snooping, IGMP and MLD snooping would need to be disabled with disable igmpsnooping and disable mldsnooping. Disabling these services is not desirable if multicasting is used in the network.

If other hardware filters are used, they will eat into the filter resource and so your maximum leases (and also your QoS classifiers) would be reduced.

Example on a Rapier 24i

XIf leases are 2 on ports 1 and 2 but 5 on ports 3 to 8, then the number of filter resources used is:

(2 entries * 2 ports) + (5 entries * 6 ports) = 34 entries

XIf ARP security is enabled, add 1:

(2 entries * 2 ports) + (5 entries * 6 ports) + 1 = 35 entries

XSo, the number of available filter resources left for other hardware filters, QoS classifiers or more leases is:

(119 maximum entries) – (34 used) = 85 entries

Xor if ARP security is enabled, is:

(119 maximum entries) – (35 used) = 84 entries
