DHCP Class Policy Configuration
The local DHCP server assigns IP addresses to DHCP enabled wireless clients based on user class
option names. Clients with a defined set of user class option names are identified by their user
class name. The DHCP server can assign IP addresses from as many IP address ranges as defined
by the administrator. The DHCP user class associates a particular range of IP addresses to a device
in such a way that all devices of that type are assigned IP addresses from the defined range.
Refer to the DHCP Class Policy screen to review existing DHCP class names and their current
multiple user class designations. Multiple user class options enable a user class to transmit option
values to DHCP servers supporting multiple user class options. Either add a new class policy, edit
the configuration of an existing policy or permanently delete a policy as required.
To review DHCP class policies:
1. Select Configuration > Services.
2. Select the Class Policy tab.
3. Refer to the following to determine whether a new class policy requires creation, an existing
class policy requires edit or an existing policy requires deletion:
4. Select Add to create a new DHCP class policy, Edit to update an existing policy or Delete to
remove an existing policy.
DHCP Class Name Displays client names grouped by the class name assigned when the class policy was created.
Multiple User Class A green check mark in this column defines multiple user class support as enabled from the listed DHCP
class name. A red “X” defines multiple user class support as disabled. Multiple user class support can
be enabled/disabled for existing class names by editing the class name’s configuration.
