4.9.7 DHCP Snooping
4.9.7.1 DHCP Snooping Overview
The addresses assigned to DHCP clients on unsecure ports can be carefully controlled using the dynamic bindings registered
with DHCP Snooping. DHCP snooping allows a switch to protect a network from rogue DHCP servers or other devices which
send port-related information to a DHCP server. This information can be useful in tracking an IP address back to a physical port.
Command Usage
Network traffic may be disrupted when malicious DHCP messages are received from an outside source. DHCP snooping is
used to filter DHCP messages received on a non-secure interface from outside the network or firewall. When DHCP
snooping is enabled globally and enabled on a VLAN interface, DHCP messages received on an untrusted interface from
a device not listed in the DHCP snooping table will be dropped.
