Anchor controller DHCP option

Hi,

Specifically around DHCP is there an option or some other configuration required for a client tunneled to an Anchor controller to force the client to use the DHCP servers configured under the WLAN on the Anchor controller and not receive a DHCP IP from another DHCP server along its path? 

Thanks,

If your clients are being tunnelled to an Anchor WLC then they will receive DHCP from whichever server you have specified on that WLC or whichever interface the traffic is egressing from on that Anchor.

If you are finding clients are receiving an IP from a VLAN associated with your foreign WLC then the traffic may not be tunnelled correctly via mobility tunnels or your interfaces under the WLAN aren't correct possibly.

Cheers,

Ric
