Advanced Net - Lecture-8

The document discusses DHCP and its configuration. It describes how DHCP works to dynamically distribute IP addresses and configuration settings to clients on a network. It provides advantages of DHCP including centralized management and easier administration. The document then covers the DHCP process and configuring a router as a DHCP server, including defining a DHCP pool, excluded addresses, and DNS servers. It also discusses DHCP relay agents and the differences between DHCPv4 and DHCPv6.

DHCP

Lecturer: Huthaifa Nour Hassan


Advanced Networking 2 Lecturer: Huthaifa Nour Hassan, Hormuud University
DHCP(Ipv4 & IPv6)

 Allows a server to dynamically distribute IP addressing and configuration


information to the clients.
» IP address
» Subnet mask
» Default Gateway
» DNS server
 Advantages.
» Centralized Network Client Configuration.
» Easier IP address Management.
» Reduced Network Administration
» Large Network Support.

DHCP Process

Advanced Networking 4 Lecturer: Huthaifa Nour Hassan, Hormuud University


Assigning a Dynamic IPv4 Address to a Host

DHCP – prefered method of “Leasing”


IPv4 address to host on large networks,
reduces the burden on network support
staff and virtually eliminates entry
errors

LAB: DHCP Configuration

TASK:
 Configure R-1 and PC in the LAN with IP address as per the diagram given

 Configure R1 as DHCP with the following details.


» Use DHCP pool name LAN
» Use network 192.168.1.0/24
» Excluded addresses : 192.168.1.1 – 192.168.1.20 to
192.168.1.50 – 192.168.1.51, 192.168.1.100
» DNS server in the Network 192.168.1.50, 192.168.1.51

Advanced Networking 7 Lecturer: Huthaifa Nour Hassan, Hormuud University


Router as DCHP Server

Syntax:
Rx(config)# ip dhcp pool <Pool_Name>
DHCP(config# )# ip dhcp pool CCNA
DHCP(dhcp-config)# )# nework 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0
DHCP(dhcp-config)# )# default-router 192.168.1.100
DHCP(dhcp-config)# )# default-router 192.168.1.100
DHCP(dhcp-config)# )# dns-server 192.168.1.50
DHCP(dhcp-config)# )# dns-server 192.168.1.51

Excluded addresses
DHCP(config)# )# ip dhcp excluded-address 192.168.1.100
DHCP(config)# )# ip dhcp excluded-address 192.168.1.50
DHCP(config)# )# ip dhcp excluded-address 192.168.1.51

DHCP(Ipv4 & IPv6)

 Disadvantages of Router as DHCP


» Will increase the load on the router
» Best suited for network that support 10 to 15 users.

Advanced Networking 9 Lecturer: Huthaifa Nour Hassan, Hormuud University


DHCP Relay Agent (IP Helper Address)

 Forwards Broadcast DHCP request received on interface to the DHCP server


specified by the IP Helper Address via Unicast
 IP Helper Address A.B.C.D

Advanced Networking 10 Lecturer: Huthaifa Nour Hassan, Hormuud University


DHCP Relay Agent (IP Helper Address)

IP Helper Address
R-3(config)# interface f0/0
R-3(config-if)# ip helper-address 10.0.0.1
R-3(config-if)# exit

Advanced Networking 11 Lecturer: Huthaifa Nour Hassan, Hormuud University


DHCPv6
 Functionality of DHCPv6 is the same as DHCP for IPv6 but there some
differences.
 There’s no broadcast instead uses Solicited Multicast address.
 Clients listen for DHCP messages on UDP port 546.
 Server and relay agents listen for DHCP messages on UDP port 547.
 Gateway information learns based on Router Advertisement Message.

Advanced Networking 12 Lecturer: Huthaifa Nour Hassan, Hormuud University


DHCPv6 Configuration

Syntax:
Rx(config)# ipv6 dhcp pool <Pool_Name>
R-1(config)# ipv6 dhcp pool CCNA
R-1(dhcp-config)# address prefix 2001:123:123:123::/64
R-1(dhcp-config)# dns-server 2001:1234::1234
R-1(dhcp-config)# domain-name Hormuud.com

R-1(config)# int f0/0


R-1(config-if) # ipv6 address 2001:123:123:123::1/64
R-1(config-if)# ipv6 dhcp server CCNA
R-1(config-if)#ipv6 nd managed-config-flag CCNA
R-1(config-if)# no shutdown
R-2(config)# int f0/0
R-2(config-if) # ipv6 address dhcp
R-2(config-if)# ipv6 enable
R-2(config-if)# no shutdown
