DHCP relay
A DHCP relay is a host or router that forwards DHCP packets between DHCP clients and DHCP servers in different subnets. You can configure Sophos Switch to forward these packets by adding the IP addresses of your DHCP servers and relays.
Status
Go to My Products > Switches > Switches, select the switch or site where you want to configure DHCP relays, and go to L3 protocols > DHCP relay to configure the DHCP relay.
You can select from the following DHCP relay statuses:
- Not set: Use the DHCP relay status configured locally on the switch.
- Enabled: Turns DHCP relay on.
- Disabled: Turns DHCP relay off.
Once you've selected an option, select whether or not you want to synchronize the settings to the switches immediately, then click Save.
Server IP addresses
You can enter up to five IP addresses to which the switch can forward DHCP packets.
Enter an address in the Server IP addresses field and press Enter, select whether or not you want to synchronize the settings to the switches immediately, then click Save.
To delete an IP address, click delete on the IP address you want to remove, select whether or not you want to synchronize the settings to the switches immediately, then click Save.
