Configuring a DHCP server a router

Hi there,

I've been reading up on configuring a DHCP server on a router using the CLI. It looks to me like the dhcp pool is global. What happens if you have several Ethernet interfaces on the router? One might want DHCP enabled on one of them only, or possibly a separate address pool per Ethernet interface.

Cheers,

You can use extended acls to prevent dhcp coming in and out of an interface.

Each Ethernet interface will be on it's own subnet and the pools will not conflict.

Exactly. The router will not let you configure an interface with an address that is on the same subnet as another interface. It will pop up an error message and not take the address.
