set dhcpserver set dhcpserver

Devices

This command is supported in Digi Cellular Family products only.

supported

 

Purpose

Configures the DHCP server settings for the Digi Connect product. A

 

DHCP server allows other devices or hosts on the same local network as

 

the Digi Connect product to be assigned dynamic IP addresses. This

 

DHCP server supports a single subnetwork scope.

 

The only DHCP server scope currently supported in Digi Connect firmware

 

is for the “eth0” interface. That, the firmware serves IP addresses to DHCP

 

clients on the Ethernet side of the Digi Connect product only, and not the

 

cellular side, which is handled through Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)

 

instead.

 

The DHCP server operates only if the Digi Connect product is configured to

 

use static IP address configuration. For information on how to configure

 

static IP settings, see "set network" on page 149 and the help for the Web

 

user interface’s Network Configuration settings.

 

Once configured, the DHCP server is managed through the “dhcpserver”

 

command. See "dhcpserver" on page 23.

Required

For Digi Connect products with two or more users, to use this command,

permissions

permissions must be set to one of the following:

 

• For a user to display DHCP server settings: “set permissions

 

s-dhcpserver=read”

 

• For a user to display and set DHCP server settings: “set permissions

 

s-dhcpserver=rw”

 

See "set permissions" on page 157 for details on setting user permissions

 

for commands.

Syntax

Configure the DHCP server: basic settings

 

The “item” option must be specified on every instance of a “set dhcpserver”

 

command. The “item” option specifies the configuration settings to which

 

the command will be applied. To enable a scope, or a reservation or

 

exclusion entry within a scope, all of its parameters must be specified and

 

valid. A scope or entry can be enabled only if it is completely valid.
