DHCP

Creating DHCP Pools

Subscribers who use protocols that are not NAT-friendly (including some gaming
servers) or who use a dynamic DNS service to act as a Web server may want to have a
non-NATed real DHCP address.
Subscribers who want this service must have DHCP enabled on their local PCs. If they do
not have DHCP enabled, they receive the normal NATed service and do not benefit from
having a real IP address.

To create a DHCP pool, use the following command:

dhcp-pool
poolname {start_ip end_ip netmask} [lease mins | lease spec | delete]

For example, to create a dhcp-pool called swim starting at 123.123.123.99 and ending at
123.123.123.136, with a subnet mask 255.255.255.0 and a duration of one day, type:


sms2000%

dhcp-pool swim 123.123.123.99 123.123.123.136

255.255.255.0 lease 1440

Removing a DHCP Assignment

To remove a DHCP assignment with a specified hexadecimal MAC address, use the
following command:

dhcp-server release
mac_address

For example, to release a DHCP entry with MAC address 0001030465DB, type:


sms2000%

dhcp-server release 0001030465DB

Note:

The MAC address is presented in the format 0001030465DB (with no

separators).

DNS

Setting the DNS Server Address

DNS servers allow the SMS2000 to convert a name such as www.tutsystems.com to an
IP address such as 208.186.133.55. You can configure multiple DNS servers by entering
this command once for each server.
