DHCP in VLAN

[Nnamdi Nwosu]

Any easy software solution to successful deployment of
DHCP in VLAN?

 

[Dusty Harper {MS}]

DHCP is an easy service to install and setup.

Install the service through Add\Remove Windows Components in the
Add/Remove Programs under Control Panel

Then you open the DHCP MMC in Administrative tools

Create a scope by right-clicking the server and selecting New Scope

Walk through the wizard inputting the range of IPs you wish to lease on
that subnet and any exclusions

You can optionally also configure options such as what DNS servers to
use etc.

You then just right click the scope and select activate

( On a DHCP server joined to the domain, you must Authorize the server
as well )
