Overview:
The Cisco IOS DHCP Server feature is a full DHCP Server implementation that assigns and manages IP addresses from specified address pools within the router to DHCP clients.
Study Notes:
- Clients send DHCPDISCOVER broadcast messages to locate a Cisco IOS DHCP Server
- The DHCP Server responds with a DHCPOFFER unicast message containing
- IP address
- Domain name
- lease
- The client returns a formal request for the IP address to the DHCP Server in a DHCPREQUEST broadcast message
- The DHCP Server confirms the IP address has been allocated to the client with a DHCPACK unicast message to the client
