Configuring the DHCP Address Pool Subnet and Mask
To configure a subnet and mask for the newly created DHCP address pool, which contains the range of
available IP addresses that the DHCP Server may assign to clients, use the following command in DHCP
pool configuration mode:
Note You can not configure manual bindings within the same pool that is configured with the network
command. To configure manual bindings, see the “Configuring Manual Bindings” section.
Configuring the Domain Name for the Client
The domain name for a DHCP client places the client in the general grouping of networks that make up
the domain. To configure a domain name string for the client, use the following command in DHCP pool
configuration mode:
Configuring the IP Domain Name System Servers for the Client
DHCP clients query DNS IP servers when they need to correlate host names to IP addresses. To
configure the DNS IP servers that are available to a DHCP client, use the following command in DHCP
pool configuration mode:
Configuring the NetBIOS Windows Internet Naming Service Servers for the Client
Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) is a name resolution service that Microsoft DHCP clients use
to correlate host names to IP addresses within a general grouping of networks. To configure the NetBIOS
WINS servers that are available to a Microsoft DHCP client, use the following command in DHCP pool
configuration mode:
Command Purpose
Router(dhcp-config)# network network-number
[mask | /prefix-length]
Specifies the subnet network number and mask of the DHCP
address pool.
The prefix length specifies the number of bits that comprise the
address prefix. The prefix is an alternative way of specifying the
network mask of the client. The prefix length must be preceded by
a forward slash (/).
Command Purpose
Router(dhcp-config)# domain-name domain
Specifies the domain name for the client.
Command Purpose
Router(dhcp-config)# dns-server address
[address2
... address8]
Specifies the IP address of a DNS server that is available to a DHCP client.
One IP address is required; however, you can specify up to eight IP
addresses in one command line.
