NOTE:

An interface can be configured to acquire an IP address in multiple ways. The latest configuration
overwrites the previous one.

Secondary IP addresses cannot be configured on an interface that is enabled with the DHCP client.

If the IP address that interface A obtains from the DHCP server is on the same network segment as the
IP address of interface B, interface A neither uses the IP address nor requests any IP address from the

DHCP server, unless the IP address of interface B is manually deleted and interface A is brought up

again by first executing the shutdown command and then the undo shutdown command or the DHCP
client is re-enabled on interface A by executing the undo ip address dhcp-alloc command and then the

ip address dhcp-alloc command.

DHCP client configuration example

Network requirements

As shown in

Figure 23

, on a LAN, Switch B contacts the DHCP server via VLAN-interface 2 to obtain an

IP address, DNS server address, and static route information. The IP address resides on network
10.1.1.0/24. The DNS server address is 20.1.1.1. The next hop of the static route to network 20.1.1.0/24

is 10.1.1.2.
The DHCP server uses Option 121 to assign static route information to DHCP clients. The destination

descriptor field comprises two parts, subnet mask length and destination network address. In this

example, the value of the destination descriptor field takes 18 14 01 01, a hexadecimal number
indicating that the subnet mask length is 24 and destination network address is 20.1.1.0, and the value

of the next hop address field takes 0A 01 01 02, a hexadecimal number indicating that the next hop is

10.1.1.2.
