DHCP Snooping Database Agent
When DHCP snooping is enabled, the system uses the DHCP snooping binding database
to store information about untrusted interfaces. Each database entry (binding) has an IP
address, associated MAC address, lease time, interface to which the binding applies and
VLAN to which the interface belongs.
To maintain the binding when reload the system, you must use DHCP snooping database
agent. If the agent is not used, the DHCP snooping binding will be lost when the switch is
rebooted. The mechanism for the database agent saves the binding in a file at a remote
location. Upon reloading, the switch reads the file to build the database for the binding.
The system keeps the current file by writing to the file as the database changes.

Specifying DHCP Snooping Binding Entry
The DHCP snooping binding table contains a hardware address, IP address, lease time,
VLAN ID, and port information that correspond to the untrusted interfaces of the system.
To manually specify a DHCP snooping binding entry, use the following command.
Command Mode
Description
ip dhcp snooping binding
