Chapter 5 Avaya P460 Layer 3 Features

When the DHCP/BOOTP server is configured to allocate addresses only from a single subnetwork among the different subnetworks defined on the VLAN, you might need to configure the P460 with the relay address on that subnet so the DHCP/BOOTP server can accept the request.

DHCP/BOOTP Relay in P460 is configurable per VLAN and allows for two DHCP/ BOOTP servers to be specified. In this case, the P460 duplicates each request, and sends it to both servers. This duplication provides redundancy and prevents the failure of a single server from blocking hosts from loading.

You can enable or disable or DHCP/BOOTP Relay in P460.
