Recently we implemented a network using Ubiquity Edgeswitches and had to enable a DHCP relay server for our VLAN’s to do this we had to use the CLI
- Log into the edgeswitch using ssh and your admin credentials
- Type “Enable” and enter your password when prompted
- To check any ip-helpers configured to can type “show ip helper-address”
- Type “configure”
- Type “interface vlan <VLAN#>”
- Type “ip helper-address <IP_OF_DHCP_SERVER>” (repeat steps 4&5 for all other VLAN’s if applicable)
- Type “exit”
- Type “exit”
- Confirm helper is configured by typing “show ip helper-address”
- Type “exit”
- Type “exit” to close SSH session
Your VLAN users should now be able to obtain a DHCP server on the VLAN they have been assigned to.
