Configuring DHCP Snooping
To disable DHCP snooping, use the no ip dhcp snooping global configuration command. To disable
DHCP snooping on a VLAN or range of VLANs, use the no ip dhcp snooping vlan vlan-range global
configuration command. To disable the insertion and the removal of the option-82 field, use the no ip
dhcp snooping information option global configuration command. To configure an aggregation switch
to drop incoming DHCP snooping packets with option-82 information from an edge switch, use the no
ip dhcp snooping information option allow-untrusted global configuration command.
This example shows how to enable DHCP snooping globally and on VLAN 10 and to configure a rate
limit of 100 packets per second on a port:
Switch(config)# ip dhcp snooping
Switch(config)# ip dhcp snooping vlan 10
Switch(config)# ip dhcp snooping information option
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet2/0/1
Switch(config-if)# ip dhcp snooping limit rate 100
Step8 ip dhcp snooping vlan vlan information
option format-type circuit-id
[override] string ASCII-string
(Optional) Configure the circuit-ID suboption for the specified interface.
Specify the VLAN and port identifier, using a VLAN ID in the range of
1 to 4094. The default circuit ID is the port identifier in the format
vlan-mod-port.
You can configure the circuit ID to be a string of 3 to 63 ASCII characters
(no spaces).
(Optional) Use the override keyword when you do not want the
circuit-ID suboption inserted in TLV format to define subscriber
information.
Step9 ip dhcp snooping trust (Optional) Configure the interface as trusted or as untrusted. Use the no
keyword to configure an interface to receive messages from an untrusted
client. The default setting is untrusted.
Step10 ip dhcp snooping limit rate rate (Optional) Configure the number of DHCP packets per second that an
interface can receive. The range is 1 to 2048. By default, no rate limit is
configured.
Note We recommend an untrusted rate limit of not more than 100
packets per second. If you configure rate limiting for trusted
interfaces, you might need to increase the rate limit if the port is
a trunk port assigned to more than one VLAN with DHCP
snooping.
Step11 exit Return to global configuration mode.
Step12 ip dhcp snooping verify mac-address (Optional) Configure the switch to verify that the source MAC address in
a DHCP packet received on untrusted ports matches the client hardware
address in the packet. The default is to verify that the source MAC
address matches the client hardware address in the packet.
Step13 end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step14 show running-config Verify your entries.
Step15 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
