Hi there, everybody!
This post describes how to configure DHCP option 60. Please have a look below to find more details.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The DHCP option 60 indicates the DHCP 60 mode. In this mode, a DHCP server is selected for the packet based on Option 60. Option 60 is an option of the DHCP packet. Its code 60 is used for identifying the terminal type. In this mode, a DHCP server is selected based on the terminal type.
PROCEDURE
<?xml:namespace prefix = "o" ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
1. Set the IP address of the VLAN Layer 3 interface.
huawei(config)#vlan 100 smart
huawei(config)#interface vlanif 100
huawei(config-if-vlanif100)#ip address 10.10.224.1 255.255.255.0 // Set the IP address of the DHCP domain gateway for CMs.
huawei(config-if-vlanif100)#quit
2. Configure the working mode of the DHCP relay to Layer 3 Option 60.
huawei(config)#dhcp mode layer-3
Option60
Several minutes may be required and no action can be taken during this period.
Are you sure to perform this operation? (y/n)[n]: y
3. Set the IP addresses of the servers in a DHCP server group.
huawei(config)#dhcp-server 0 ip 192.168.10.10 192.168.10.11 // Configure the DHCP server group 0 to assign the IP addresses to CMs.
4. Create a DHCP Option 60 domain.
huawei(config)#dhcp domain docsis // Create Option 60 domain name docsis for CMs.
huawei(config-dhcp-domain-docsis)#dhcp-server
0 vlan 100 // Bind the DHCP server group 0 to the DHCP domain where the CMs are located. After the configuration, the CMs in the DHCP domain correspond to the DHCP server group 0.
huawei(config-dhcp-domain-docsis)#quit
5. Set the IP address of the gateway for the DHCP domain.
huawei(config)#interface vlanif 100
huawei(config-if-vlanif100)#dhcp
domain docsis gateway 10.10.224.1 // Set the IP address of the gateway for the CM domain to 10.10.224.1.
huawei(config-if-vlanif100)#quit
This would be how to configure the DHCP option 60.
Thank you.
