WAP581 - Disable DHCP Server?

Hi,

 

Is there a way to actually disable the DHCP server completely on the WAP581?

 

I see in the manual that it will 'start a dhcp server' if it sees DHCP requests from clients go unanswered.. but I'd like to know if I can just shutdown this service completely so there is never a chance this DHCP server will override my primary DHCP server (resides on my router)

 

Thanks

Same issue with a 5700 ethernet switch. Any ideas? 

 

May be you can start with DHCP Snoop which device to trust if not able to disabled.

The switch is installed in the plant, on a machine, where it is needed. But it is acting as a dhcp server, providing ip addresses to the office laptops. How can we disable all its DHCP features? See attached parameters we changed.
