With a fixed host configuration, also known as manual binding, you must configure a network pool with a matching subnet. The
static host-to-MAC address mapping pool inherits the network mask from the network pool with subnet configuration, which
includes the hosts address range.
Consider the following example:
OS10# show running-configuration interface ethernet 1/1/2
!
interface ethernet1/1/2
no shutdown
no switchport
ip address 100.1.1.1/24
flowcontrol receive off
OS10# show running-configuration ip dhcp
!
ip dhcp server
no disable
!
pool host1
host 100.1.1.34
hardware-address 00:0c:29:ee:4c:f4
!
pool hostnetwork
lease infinite
network 100.1.1.0/24
!
pool host2
host 20.1.1.34
hardware-address 00:0c:29:aa:22:f4
In this example, the pool host1, which is the fixed host mapping pool, inherits the subnet and other attributes from the pool
hostnetwork, which is the DHCP client IP address pool. There is no matching network pool for host2. Therefore, the DHCP
client with the MAC address 00:0c:29:aa:22:f4 does not obtain the correct parameters.
