5.2.9 Configuring DHCP Pool Class
The DHCP server can associate multiple classes to each pool. Each class in a pool is assigned an exclusive range of IP
addresses.
DHCP clients are matched against classes. If the client matches one of the classes assigned to the pool, it’s
assigned the IP address from the range assigned to the class. If the client does not match any of the classes
in the pool, it’s assigned the IP address from the pool’s default range (if configured).
To view the attributes of existing host pools:
1. Select Services > DHCP Server from the main menu tree.
2. Select the Pool Class tab to view the DHCP pool class details.
3. Refer to the Pool Class Names field to configure a pool class. A pre configured pool and class must
exist to configure a pool class.
The Address Ranges section displays the address ranges associated with the pool class.
4. Click the Edit button to modify the properties displayed for an existing DHCP Pool Class Name. For more
information, see Editing an Existing DHCP Pool Class on page 5-22.
5. To delete an existing DHCP pool class name and its associated address range, select the pool class name
from the Pool Class Names field and click the Delete button.
