Insight Managed 28-Port and 52-Port Gigabit Ethernet Smart Cloud Switches
To configure DHCP snooping interface settings:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Access the Switch on page 13.
The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch’s password in the password field.
The default password is password. If you added the switch to a network on the Insight
app before and you did not yet change the password through the local browser interface,
enter your Insight network password.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select System> Services > DHCP Snooping > Interface Configuration.
The DHCP Snooping Interface Configuration page displays.
6. To display information for all ports and LAGs, click the All link.
7. Select one or more interfaces by taking one of the following actions:
To configure a single interface, select the check box associated with the port, or type
the port number in the Go To Interface field and click the Go button.
To configure multiple interfaces with the same settings, select the check box
associated with each interface.
To configure all interfaces with the same settings, select the check box in the heading
row.
8. From the Trust Mode menu, select the desired trust mode:
Disabled. The interface is considered to be untrusted and could potentially be used
to launch a network attack. DHCP server messages are checked against the bindings
database. On untrusted ports, DHCP snooping enforces the following security rules:
- DHCP packets from a DHCP server (DHCPOFFER, DHCPACK, DHCPNAK,
DHCPRELEASEQUERY) are dropped.
- DHCPRELEASE and DHCPDECLINE messages are dropped if the MAC address
is in the snooping database but the binding’s interface is other than the interface
where the message was received.
- DHCP packets are dropped when the source MAC address does not match the
client hardware address if MAC address validation is globally enabled.
Enabled. The interface is considered to be trusted and forwards DHCP server
messages without validation.
9. From the Invalid Packets menu, select the packet logging mode.
