DHCP Snooping Configuration Guidelines
These are the configuration guidelines for DHCP snooping.
•You must globally enable DHCP snooping on the switch.
•DHCP snooping is not active until DHCP snooping is enabled on a VLAN.
•Before globally enabling DHCP snooping on the switch, make sure that the devices acting as the
DHCP server and the DHCP relay agent are configured and enabled.
•When you globally enable DHCP snooping on the switch, these Cisco IOS commands are not
available until snooping is disabled. If you enter these commands, the switch returns an error
message, and the configuration is not applied.
