View Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Service Profile
DHCP is used to automate host configuration by assigning IP addresses, d elegating pr efixes (in IPv6 ),
and providing extensive configuration information to network computers.
DHCP has the capability to allocate IP addresses only for a specified period of time, which is known as
the lease period. If a client device wants to retain the IP addr es ses for a per iod long er th an th e l ease
period, then the client must renew the lease before it expir es. A client can renew the lease depending on
the configuration time sent from the server. A REQUEST message is unicast by the client using the
server's IP address. On receiving the REQUEST message, the server responds with an acknowledgment,
and the client's lease is extended by the lease time configured in the a cknowled gment me ssa ge.
To view the DHCP service profile:
Step 1 Right-click on the required device and choose the Inventory option.
Step 2 In the Inventory window, choose Logical Inventory > DHCP Service > DHCP Profiles - IPv4. A list
of DHCP profiles are displayed in the content pane as shown in Figure 24-3.
