padding format of Option 82.

Configure the

dhcp-snooping information [ vlan

{ remote-id | sysname }

Optional
By default, the padding
content depends on the

padding format of Option 82.

NOTE:

You can only enable DHCP snooping to support Option 82 on Ethernet interfaces or aggregate
interfaces.

If an Ethernet interface is added to an aggregation group, enabling DHCP snooping to support Option
82 on the interface will not take effect. After the interface quits the aggregation group, the configuration

will be effective.

Option 82 support requires configuration on both the DHCP server and the device enabled with DHCP
snooping. See the chapter “DHCP server configuration” for DHCP server configuration of this kind.

If the handling strategy of the DHCP-snooping-enabled device is configured as replace, you need to
configure a padding format for Option 82. If the handling strategy is keep or drop, you need not

configure any padding format.

If the Option 82 is padded with the device name, the device name must contain no spaces. Otherwise,
the DHCP-snooping device will drop the message. You can use the sysname command to specify the
device name. For more information about this command, see the

Fundamentals Command Reference.

Configuring DHCP snooping entries backup

DHCP snooping entries cannot survive a reboot. If the DHCP snooping device is rebooted, security
modules (such as IP source guard) that use DHCP snooping entries to authenticate users will reject

requests from clients until new entries are learned.
The DHCP snooping entries backup feature enables you to store DHCP snooping entries in a file. When

the DHCP snooping device reboots, it reads DHCP snooping entries from this file.
