Hello,   One of our switches host dhcp server for a set of hosts. There are about 55 of these hosts , currently in operation. However the dhcp binding table only shows four of them.  (note- these are not manual bindings).   Is there any specific reason for this output? Should it not show me all ip's from the pool that are currently leased/being used?   Thank you. ... View more

Hello, We are configuring a router and switch for a location with following configuration outline.   1. Routers gi0/0/0 connects to fa0/48 on switch 2. Router will be as dot1q with multiple segments tied from gi0/0/0 3. Switch fa0/48 will be a trunk allowing all vlans , switch itself will have about 7 layer2 vlans 4. Management for both router and switch will be on vlan 100(192.168.100.0/28) router - 192.168.100.11 & switch - 192.168.100.12   interface GigabitEthernet0/0/1.100 (on router) description device management encapsulation dot1Q 100 ip address 192.168.100.11 255.255.255.240     interface fa0/48 (on switch) description device management switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q switchport mode trunk switchport trunk native vlan 8     int vlan 100 (on switch ) ip address 192.168.100.12 255.255.255.240 5. The router will do all routing upstream and the switch will only have layer 2 functionality In this case, will the fa0/48 config on switch work well from a native vlan perspective? Do we need to specify explicity vlan 8 as native on switch port fa0/48? What happens if we do not specify (which will then default native to 1) ? Will this affect connectivity in any aspect for the rest of vlans on that location. please help with inputs. ... View more
