IP HELPER ADDRESS FOR DHCP

[carl_townshend]

Hi all, when adding an ip helpder address, if im using vrrp between 2 distribution switches, do I set the helper address as the virtual address, or the real address of the vlan interface ?

Hi Carl

You should configure the IP address of the DHCP server that is providing the scope for the VLAN you are applying the ip helper-address to.

Hope this helps

Hi sorry, I got the question wrong, what i meant to say was what would the agent address of the vlan be, would it come from the vrrp address of the vlan or real address of the vlan ?
