DHCP Reporting
Instant APs can be configured as DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. relay agent and send DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. information to a server when the AP operates as the DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. server for the network. When configured, the Instant AP assigns an IP address for clients and forwards the DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. packets to the server at the helper address. The server configured at the helper address cannot assign IP addresses or enforce policies but can only profile clients based on the MAC Media Access Control. A MAC address is a unique identifier assigned to network interfaces for communications on a network. -IP pairing information sent by the Instant AP.
Important Points to Remember
- Not supported in Distributed L2, Centralized L2, and Local L2 deployments. The option is only available when the AP operates as the DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. server.
- DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. reporting is not supported with IPv6 addresses.
- Upto 4 DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. helper servers can be configured in a DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. profile.
Configuration
The following procedures configure DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. reporting in Local, Local L3, Centralized L3, Distributed L3, and Virtual Controller assigned networks using the WebUI:
- Navigate to Configuration > DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. Server page. Click on the links below to learn how to create or modify DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. scopes:
- In the scope settings, toggle the DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. Relay switch to enabled and specify the IP address of the server in the Helper address field. Click Save to make the configuration change.
Once configured, the Instant AP starts to forward DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. packets to the Helper address configured.
To enable DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. relay in Local, Local L3, Centralized L3, and Distributed L3 networks using the CLI Command-Line Interface. A console interface with a command line shell that allows users to execute text input as commands and convert these commands to appropriate functions., configure the dhcp-relay and dhcp-server parameters in the DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. profile using the ip dhcp command.

To enable DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. relay for networks with Virtual Controller assigned IP addresses using the CLI Command-Line Interface. A console interface with a command line shell that allows users to execute text input as commands and convert these commands to appropriate functions., configure the dhcp-relay and dhcp-server parameters in the ip dhcp pool command.

Verifying the Configuration
To verify the DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network. relay configuration, use the show dhcp-allocation command.
(Instant AP) # show dhcp-allocation
