Hi,
I have configured the Cisco 3825 router as a DHCP server for leasing an IP addresses to me remote intra network.How many IP address can this Cisco 3825 router can lease?
Thanks and Regards,
S.Venkataraman.

The address range is specified in the network
The addresses you include, if any, in the ip dhcp excluded-address statement will be excluded from the pool.

Hi Venkat,
To add some detail to Victor's explanation:
You need to configure the following, just an example:
conf t
ip dhcp pool 1
network 192.168.1.0 /24
The result of this will be that the DHCP server will be able to lease the number of ip addresses that are within a /24 subnet, i. e. 254.
With a /25 prefix the number of available ip addresses will be 126. etc.
In reality it can be less, as you have already at least one ip address manually assigned in a given subnet: the ip address of the interface of the DHCP relay agent, or that of the DHCP server itself.

Hi, Istvan:
I didn't give him the actual commands to enter to configure DHCP because he says he already configured it. :-)

Hi Victor,
No problem. I just gave it for better understanding of the principle.
