Configuring Interfaces
for DHCP Snooping
Use the IP Service > DHCP > Snooping (Configure Interface) page to configure
switch interfaces as trusted or untrusted.
Command Usage
A trusted interface is an interface that is configured to receive only messages
from within the network. An untrusted interface is an interface that is
configured to receive messages from outside the network or fire wall.
When DHCP snooping is enabled both globally and on a VLAN, DHCP packet
filtering will be performed on any untrusted interface within the VLAN.
When an untrusted interface is changed to a trusted port, all the dynamic DHCP
snooping bindings associated with this interface is removed.
Set all interfaces connected to DHCP servers within the local network or fire
wall to trusted state. Set all other interfaces outside the local network or fire
wall to untrusted state.
Parameters
These parameters are displayed:
Interface – Port or trunk identifier.
Trust Status – Enables or disables a port as trusted. (Default: Disabled)
Max Number – The maximum number of DHCP clients which can be
supported per interface. (Range: 1-32; Default: 16)
