Dynamic IP addresses

[UN-FALD]

I have one Access Point 340 connected to my Cisco 3550 Switch

and I have another Cisco Work Group bridge connected to another switch

with 4 clients on it.

I can communicate with access point from the hosts via workgroup bridge

only if I have static IPs but how can I configure my workgroup bridge or the access point so that I can get my clients behind the workgroup bridge to

get dynamic ip addresses from DHCP.

Hi ,

make sure you are running latest firmware on the wgb .

If you go in the wgb you can set it to get dynamic ip

WGB is layer2 so host behind it should get dynamic ip . If not troubleshoot on dhcp

server and see if dhcp server is getting discovery ?

On ap there is option wgb in infrastructure mode but that is for environment with

too many wgb

Hi Nilesh,

The WGB is running V8.24,I changed the config of the

WGB to get a dynamic address from the DHCP,but it only assigns a dynamic

address to WGB,which means DHCP can assign ip address to WGB

via Access-point but still clients behind the WGB can't get the dynamic address :(

Any Suggestions
