Aironet 1140 AP's and DHCP

[mwatson]

We have 6 aironet 1140's throughout the office I have them all configed as one ssid but I would like the DHCP to come from our Windows server.  Right now I have set them up with ip dhcp pools.  So what is the secret to get them to send dhcp requests to the Windows server?

Thanks

You need to configure IP helper address on the layer 3 interface. That will send any dhcp request to the dhcp server.

I have that on my router for that subnet.  Is there any command on the 1140 that I need to enter?

Nope...

All you have to do is configure ip helpder address on L3 device and remove the dhcp pool configuration from AP's. This will ensure that devices pick ip from your wondws dhcp scope.

Hope that helps.
