Configuring DHCP

tomboydston

Level 1

Hello,

I am fairly new to Cisco products. I have been asked to make sure our 2651 routers are able to pass DHCP to our core sever. After seardching I could not detrermine how to configure or to see if they are already configured to pass DHCP.

Any help would be appreciated

Check to see if helper address are configured on the interfaces

No I don't see that on the interface configs.

These would help making DHCP work

ip forward-protocol udp bootpc

ip forward-protocol udp bootps

Would I enter this in global config on both core router and the client router?

Compiling all the information given,

- configure "ip helper-address " from interface config mode

(The interface connected to the LAN segment where the users are also connected)

- at global config mode:

ip forward-protocol udp bootpc (or port 67)

ip forward-protocol udp bootps (or port 68)

These configs should be entered only on the router where the user are connected.

Hope this helps.

I entered these confiogs. I t doesn't work. I tried to ping the server from theclien pc. I cannot ping the server. Here is a copy of the sh run.
