Manual binding entries
Address binding is mapping between the IP address and the media access control (MAC) address of a client. The DHCP server assigns the
client an available IP address automatically and then creates an entry in the binding table. You can also manually create an entry for a client.
Manual bindings help to guarantee that a particular network device receives a particular IP address.
Consider manual bindings as single-host address pools. There is no limit to the number of manual bindings, but you can only congure one
manual binding per host. Manual binding entries do not display in the show ip dhcp binding output.

DHCP relay agent
A DHCP relay agent relays DHCP messages to and from a remote DHCP server, even if the client and server are on dierent IP networks.
You can congure the IP address of the remote DHCP server.
You can congure a device either as a DHCP server or a DHCP relay agent — but not both.
Option 82 for security
DHCP, as dened by RFC 2131, provides no authentication or security mechanisms. To provide security, the DHCP relay agent supports
Option-82 with Circuit ID sub option, which is the printable name of the interface on which the client request was received.
This option secures all DHCP trac that go through a DHCP relay agent, and ensures that communication between the DHCP relay agent
and the DHCP server is not compromised.
