DHCP Relay Option 61 Settings

This command is used to add a rule to the relay server based on option 61. The matching rule can be based on either the MAC address or by using a user-specified string. Only one relay server can be specified for a MAC-address or a string. If the existing relay servers are determined based on option 60, and one relay server is determined based on option 61, the final relay servers will be the union of these two sets of servers.

Out of Band Management Settings

This window is used to configure the RJ-45 Out-of-band (OOB) management port on the Switch. The OOB port is physically isolated from the data channels of the Switch. This port allows administrators manage the device remotely without the impact data channel congestion. The OOB management is a method to manage devices while sharing the network bandwidth with other management traffic. The OOB port allows Management packets and ARP requests to pass while other packets will be dropped.
