Configuring DHCP Over VPN

VPN > DHCP over VPN

The VPN > DHCP over VPN page allows a Host (DHCP Client) behind a SonicWALL obtain an IP address lease from a DHCP server at the other end of a VPN tunnel. In some network deployments, it is desirable to have all VPN networks on one logical IP subnet, and create the appearance of all VPN networks residing in one IP subnet address space. This facilitates IP address administration for the networks using VPN tunnels.

DHCP Relay Mode

The SonicWALL appliance at the remote and central site are configured for VPN tunnels for initial DHCP traffic as well as subsequent IP traffic between the sites. The SonicWALL at the remote site (Remote Gateway) passes DHCP broadcast packets through its VPN tunnel. The SonicWALL at the central site (Central Gateway) relays DHCP packets from the client on the remote network to the DHCP server on the central site.
