“. “ip help-address” can only be configured for ports on layer 3 and cannot

be configured on layer 2 ports directly.

Usage Guide:

When a DHCP/BootP client is connected to a VLAN1 port of the switch,

the client can only get its address from 10.16.1.0/24 instead of 10.16.2.0/24. This is

because the broadcast packet from the client will be requesting the IP address in the

same segment of the VLAN interface after VLAN interface forwarding, and the VLAN

interface IP address is 10.16.1.2/24, therefore the IP address assigned to the client will

belong to 10.16.1.0/24.

If the DHCP/BootP client wants to have an address in 10.16.2.0/24, the gateway

forwarding broadcast packets of the client must belong to 10.16.2.0/24. The connectivity

between the client gateway and the switch must be ensured for the client to get an IP

address from the 10.16.2.0/24 address pool.

10.5 DHCP Troubleshooting

If the DHCP clients cannot obtain IP addresses and other network parameters, the

following procedures can be followed when DHCP client hardware and cables have been

verified ok.

z

Verify the DHCP server is running, start the related DHCP server if not running.

z

If the DHCP clients and servers are not in the same physical network, verify the

router responsible for DHCP packet forwarding has DHCP relay function. If DHCP

relay is not available for the intermediate router, it is recommended to replace the

router or upgrade its software to one that has a DHCP relay function.

z

In such case, DHCP server should be examined for an address pool that is in the

same segment of the switch VLAN, such a pool should be added if not present, and

(This does not indicate ES4624-SFP/ES4626-SFP switch cannot assign IP address

for different segments, see solution 2 for details.)

In DHCP service, pools for dynamic IP allocation and manual binding are conflicting, i.e.,

if command “network-address” and “host” are run for a pool, only one of them will take

effect; furthermore, in manual binding, only one IP-MAC binding can be configured in one

pool. If multiple bindings are required, multiple manual pools can be created and IP-MAC

bindings set for each pool. New configuration in the same pool overwrites the previous

configuration.
