Information About Configurable DHCP Client

To configure the DHCP client, you must understand the following concepts:
• DHCP Client Operation, page 2
• Design of the Configurable DHCP Client Feature, page 2

DHCP Client Operation

DHCP provides a framework for passing configuration information to hosts on a TCP/IP network. A
DHCP client is an Internet host using DHCP to obtain configuration parameters such as an IP address.
Figure 1 shows the basic steps that occur when a DHCP client requests an IP address from a DHCP
server. The client, Host A, sends a DHCPDISCOVER broadcast message to locate a DHCP server. A
DHCP server offers configuration parameters (such as an IP address, a MAC address, a domain name,
and a lease for the IP address) to the client in a DHCPOFFER unicast message.

DHCPDISCOVER (broadcast)
Host A Cisco IOS
DHCPOFFER (unicast) DHCP server
DHCPREQUEST (broadcast)
DHCPACK (unicast)

32369
A DHCP client may receive offers from multiple DHCP servers and can accept any one of the offers;
however, the client usually accepts the first offer it receives. Additionally, the offer from the DHCP
server is not a guarantee that the IP address will be allocated to the client; however, the server usually
reserves the address until the client has had a chance to formally request the address.
The client returns a formal request for the offered IP address to the DHCP server in a DHCPREQUEST
broadcast message. The DHCP server confirms that the IP address has been allocated to the client by
returning a DHCPACK unicast message to the client.

Design of the Configurable DHCP Client Feature

The Configurable DHCP Client feature allows a DHCP client to use a user-specified client identifier,
class identifier, or suggested lease time when requesting an address from a DHCP server.
Configuration parameters and other control information are carried in tagged data items that are stored
in the options field of the DHCP message. The Configurable DHCP Client feature provides flexibility
by allowing the following options to be configured for a DHCP client:
• Option 12—This option specifies the name of the client. The name may or may not be qualified with
the local domain.
• Option 51—This option is used in a client request (DHCPDISCOVER or DHCPREQUEST) to allow
the client to request a lease time for the IP address.
• Option 55—This option allows the DHCP client to request certain options from the DHCP server.
The ip dhcp client request command allows the system administrator to turn off some of the
requested options, thus removing them from the request list.

 Configurable DHCP Client
How to Configure the DHCP Client

• Option 60—This option allows the user to configure the vendor class identifier string to use in the
DHCP interaction.
• Option 61—This option is used by DHCP clients to specify their unique identifier. DHCP servers
use this value to index their database of address bindings. This value is expected to be unique for all
clients in an administrative domain.

How to Configure the DHCP Client

This section contains the following procedure:
• Configuring the DHCP Client, page 3

Configuring the DHCP Client

Perform this task to configure the DHCP client.

Prerequisites
You must configure the ip dhcp client commands before entering the ip address dhcp command on an
interface to ensure that the DHCPDISCOVER messages that are generated contain the correct option
values. The ip dhcp client commands are checked only when an IP address is acquired from DHCP. If
any of the ip dhcp client commands are entered after an IP address has been acquired from DHCP, it
will not take effect until the next time the router acquires an IP address from DHCP. This means that the
new configuration will only take effect after either the ip address dhcp command or the release dhcp
and renew dhcp EXEC commands have been configured.

Troubleshooting Tips
To verify the configuration, you can use the debug dhcp detail EXEC command to display the DHCP
packets that were sent and received. To display the server side of the DHCP interaction, use the
debug ip dhcp server packets command.

ip address dhcp

ip address dhcp
To acquire an IP address on an interface from the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), use
the ip address dhcp command in interface configuration mode. To remove any address that was
acquired, use the no form of this command.

ip address dhcp [client-id interface-name] [hostname host-name]

no ip address dhcp [client-id interface-name] [hostname host-name]

Syntax Description client-id (Optional) Specifies the client identifier. By default, the client identifier is an
ASCII value. The client-id interface-name option sets the client identifier to the
hexadecimal MAC address of the named interface.
interface-name (Optional) The interface name from which the MAC address is taken.
hostname (Optional) Specifies the hostname.
host-name (Optional) Name of the host to be placed in the DHCP option 12 field. This name
need not be the same as the hostname entered in global configuration mode.

Defaults The hostname is the globally configured hostname of the router.

The client identifier is an ASCII value.

Command Modes Interface configuration

Command History Release Modification

12.1(2)T This command was introduced.
12.1(3)T The client-id keyword and interface-name argument were added.
12.2(3) The hostname keyword and host-name argument were added. The behavior
of the client-id interface-name option changed. See the “Usage Guidelines”
section for details.
12.2(8)T The command was expanded for use on PPP over ATM (PPPoA) interfaces
and certain ATM interfaces.
12.2(27)SBA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(27)SBA.

Usage Guidelines

Note Prior to Release 12.2(8)T, the ip address dhcp command could be used only on Ethernet interfaces.

The ip address dhcp command allows any interface to dynamically learn its IP address by using the
DHCP protocol. It is especially useful on Ethernet interfaces that dynamically connect to an internet
service provider (ISP). Once assigned a dynamic address, the interface can be used with the Port Address
Translation (PAT) of Cisco IOS Network Address Translation (NAT) to provide Internet access to a
privately addressed network attached to the router.

Cisco IOS Release: Multiple Releases (see the Feature History table)

Configurable DHCP Client
ip address dhcp

The ip address dhcp command also works with ATM point-to-point interfaces and will accept any
encapsulation type. However, for ATM multipoint interfaces you must specify Inverse Address
Resolution Protocol via the protocol ip inarp interface configuration command and use only the
aa15snap encapsulation type.
Some ISPs require that the DHCPDISCOVER message have a specific hostname and client identifier
that is the MAC address of the interface. The most typical usage of the ip address dhcp client-id
interface-name hostname host-name command is when interface-name is the Ethernet interface where
the command is configured and host-name is the hostname provided by the ISP.
A client identifier (DHCP option 61) can be a hexadecimal or an ASCII value. By default, the client
identifier is an ASCII value. The client-id interface option overrides the default and forces the use of
the hexadecimal MAC address of the named interface.

Note Between Cisco IOS Releases 12.1(3)T and 12.2(3), the client-id optional keyword allowed the
change of the fixed ASCII value for the client identifier. After Release 12.2(3), the optional
client-id keyword forced the use of the hexadecimal MAC address of the named interface as the
client identifier.

If a Cisco router is configured to obtain its IP address from a DHCP server, it sends a DHCPDISCOVER
message to provide information about itself to the DHCP server on the network.
Use of the ip address dhcp always results in the DHCP option 12 field (hostname option) being included
in the DISCOVER message. By default, the hostname specified in option 12 will be the globally
configured hostname of the router. However, you can use the ip address dhcp hostname host-name
command to place a different name in the DHCP option 12 field than the globally configured hostname
of the router.
The no ip address dhcp command removes any IP address that was acquired, thus sending a
DHCPRELEASE message.
You might need to experiment with different configurations to determine the one required by your DHCP
server. Table 1 shows the possible configuration methods and the information placed in the DISCOVER
message for each method.

Table 1 Configuration Method and Resulting Contents of the DISCOVER Message

Configuration Method Contents of DISCOVER Messages

ip address dhcp The DISCOVER message contains “cisco-
mac-address -Eth1” in the client ID field. The
mac-address is the MAC address of the
Ethernet 1 interface and contains the default
hostname of the router in the option 12 field.
ip address dhcp hostname host-name The DISCOVER message contains “cisco-
mac-address -Eth1” in the client ID field. The
mac-address is the MAC address of the
Ethernet 1 interface, and contains host-name in
the option 12 field.
