Summit WM20 User Guide, Software Release 4.2 105
To use an external DHCP server for the WM-AD:
1 From the main menu, click WM-AD Configuration. The WM-AD Configuration screen is
displayed.
2 In the left pane WM Access Domains list, click the WM-AD you want to use DHCP relay for. The
Top o lo gy tab is displayed.

4 In the Gateway box, type the IP address for the WM-AD.
5 In the Mask box, type the appropriate subnet mask for this IP address.
6 In the DHCP Server box, type the IP address of the DHCP server to which DHCP discover and
request messages will be forwarded for clients on this WM-AD. In the case of relay, the Summit WM
Controller does not handle DHCP requests from users, but instead forwards the requests to the
indicated DHCP server.
NOTE
The DHCP Server must be configured to match the WM-AD settings. In particular for Routed WM-AD', the DHCP
server must identify the Summit WM Controller's interface IP as the default Gateway (router) for the subnet.
(Users intending to reach devices outside of the subnet will forward the packets to the default gateway
(controller) for delivery upstream.)
