Multiple DHCP Relay Servers

Saeedullah Khan

Hi,

 

Can anyone confirm about the DHCP relay commands on Nexus 3000 series.

 

ip dhcp relay address 192.168.1.10

ip dhcp relay address 192.168.1.11

 

As per my understanding when both commands running, if the first one server going to down then the second server will be acting as a primary? or both will be running on Active-Active to entertain the clients?.

 

Waiting for a reply.

Hi there,

The SVI will forward the request to both relay addresses. The end device will use the DHCP offer from whichever server reaches it first.

 

cheers,

Seb.

Ok Great! its mean we can say that this is running in active-active mode.
