Chapter 6 Interfaces

This example shows how to restart an interface. You can check all interface names on the ZyWALL. Then use either the system name or user-defined name of an interface (ge4 or Customer in this example) to restart it.

6.2.2 DHCP Setting Commands

This table lists DHCP setting commands. DHCP is based on DHCP pools. Create a DHCP pool if you want to assign a static IP address to a MAC address or if you want to specify the starting IP address and pool size of a range of IP addresses that can be assigned to DHCP clients. There are different commands for each configuration. Afterwards, in either case, you have to bind the DHCP pool to the interface.

COMMAND

DESCRIPTION

show ip dhcp dhcp-options

Shows the DHCP extended option settings.

show ip dhcp pool [profile_name]

Shows information about the specified DHCP pool or about all DHCP

 

pools.

 

 

show ip dhcp pool profile_name dhcp-options

Shows the specified DHCP pool’s DHCP extended option settings.

ip dhcp pool rename profile_name

Renames the specified DHCP pool from the first profile_name to the

profile_name

second profile_name.

[no] ip dhcp pool profile_name

Creates a DHCP pool if necessary and enters sub-command mode.

 

You can use the DHCP pool to create a static entry or to set up a

 

range of IP addresses to assign dynamically.

 

About the sub-command settings:

 

• If you use the host command, the ZyWALL treats this DHCP pool

 

as a static DHCP entry.

 

• If you do not use the host command and use the network

 

command, the ZyWALL treats this DHCP pool as a pool of IP

 

addresses.

 

• If you do not use the host command or the network

 

command, the DHCP pool is not properly configured and cannot

 

be bound to any interface.

 

The no command removes the specified DHCP pool.

show

Shows information about the specified DHCP pool.

 

Use the following commands to create a static DHCP entry. If you do

 

not use the host command, the commands that are not in this

 

section have no effect, but you can still set them.
