System information

1.1. Configure the DHCP Server
The Unified Switch can function as a DHCP server to assign addresses to wireless (or wired)
clients that connect to each AP. To configure the DHCP Server, you must configure global
settings and the address pool for the clients.
For this scenario, wireless clients will be assigned addresses in the range of 10.90.91.1/8 –
10.90.91.254/8. By limiting the range of addresses, you can then configure an ACL to limit the
network access of all clients that have addresses within this range and still maintain additional
addresses in this space for static configuration for clients or servers.
Since these addresses are on the 10.0.0.0 network as well as the AP and switch management
addresses, you must exclude all addresses that are not in the desired client range.
1.1.1. Global DHCP Configuration
Use the following procedures to configure the global DHCP settings.
1. Select the LAN tab from the navigation panel and access Administration Æ DHCP Server
Æ Global Configuration.
2. Enable the Admin Mode
3. Add the excluded addresses as following:
a. 10.0.0.0 through 10.90.91.0
b. 10.90.92.0 through 10.255.255.255
1.1.2. Pool Configuration
This section describes how to configure the address pool for the wireless clients.
