z
If an S3600 Ethernet switch is enabled with DHCP snooping, the clients connected to it cannot
dynamically obtain IP addresses through BOOTP.
z
You need to specify the ports connected to the valid DHCP servers as trusted to ensure that DHCP
clients can obtain valid IP addresses. The trusted port and the port connected to the DHCP client
must be in the same VLAN.
z
To enable DHCP snooping on an S3600 switch that belongs to an IRF fabric, do not configure the
ports connecting to the DHCP clients and DHCP server to belong to different units of the fabric;
otherwise, the switch cannot record DHCP snooping entries although the clients can obtain IP
addresses.
z
You are not recommended to configure both the DHCP snooping and selective Q-in-Q function on
the switch, which may result in the DHCP snooping to function abnormally.
