DHCP Snooping

Example
This example sets the DHCP Snooping Information circuit-id suboption string.

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/1

Console(config-if)#ip dhcp snooping information option circuit-id string 6910

Console(config-if)#

ip dhcp snooping trust

This command configures the specified interface as trusted. Use the no form to restore the default
setting.

Syntax

[no] ip dhcp snooping trust

Default Setting
All interfaces are untrusted

Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)

Command Usage

A trusted interface is an interface that is configured to receive only messages from within the
network. An untrusted interface is an interface that is configured to receive messages from
outside the network or fire wall.

Set all ports connected to DHCP servers within the local network or fire wall to trusted, and all
other ports outside the local network or fire wall to untrusted.

When DHCP snooping is enabled globally using the

ip dhcp snooping

command, and enabled

on a VLAN with

ip dhcp snooping vlan

command, DHCP packet filtering will be performed on

any untrusted ports within the VLAN according to the default status, or as specifically
configured for an interface with the

no

ip dhcp snooping trust

command.

When an untrusted port is changed to a trusted port, all the dynamic DHCP snooping bindings
associated with this port are removed.

Additional considerations when the switch itself is a DHCP client – The port(s) through which it
submits a client request to the DHCP server must be configured as trusted.

Example
This example sets port 5 to untrusted.

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5

Console(config-if)#no ip dhcp snooping trust

Console(config-if)#
