Page 5 | AlliedW are™ OS How T o Note: DHCP Snooping on Rapi er -style switches DHCP snooping List of terms: MA C Addr ess: The MAC addr ess of the snoope d DHCP client. IP Addr ess: The IP addr ess that has been allo cated to the snooped DHCP client.

Page 9 | AlliedW are™ OS How T o Note: DHCP Snooping on Rapi er -style switches DHCP Option 82 Pr otocol details In the DHCP pack et, the Option 82 segment is organized as a single DHCP option containing one or more sub-options that con vey inf ormat ion known by the r ela y agent.

Page 11 | AlliedW are™ OS How T o Note: DHCP Snooping on Rap ier -style switches DHCP filtering DHCP filtering The purpose of DHCP filtering is to pre vent IP addr esses from being falsified or ‘spoofed’. This guarantees that customer s cannot a void detection by spoofing an IP ad dress that was not actually allocated to them.
Page 12 | AlliedW are™ OS How T o Note: DHCP Snooping on Rap ier -style switches DHCP filtering ARP security It is also possible to enable DHCP snooping ARP security . If en abled this will ensur e that ARP pack ets receiv ed on non-trusted ports are onl y pe rmitted if they originate fr om an IP addr ess that has been allocated by DHCP .
