Making Switch as DHCP server

[blue4cisco]

We have cisco 2950 switch. can we use it as dhcp server in our network if yes then how ?

Please give me all commands to make it DHCP server.

Hello,

the DHCP server feature is only available on Catalyst 2955 switches, the 2950 does not support it.

Then please say me the following.

Can I make a IOS version change to that switch so it may support DHCP service ?

Hi Friend,

No you cannot. 2950 will never work as a DHCP server with any release.

Hi Blue,

i completely i won't accept the rest of ppl. say that DHCP is not supported on Cisco 2950, infact i am running dhcp server on my cisco 2950T-24 for the past 10 months IOS ver 12.1-22.EA6

find the commands

ip dhcp excluded-address 10.1.1.51 10.1.1.60

ip dhcp pool xyz

network 10.1.1.0 255.255.255.0

domain-name abc.org

dns-server 10.2.1.31

default-router 10.1.1.252

ip dhcp-server 10.1.1.250

hope this helps.
