Attaching Dynamic Profiles to DHCP Subscriber Interfaces or DHCP Client Interfaces

This topic describes how to attach a dynamic profile to a DHCP subscriber interface or a DHCP client interface. When a DHCP subscriber or DHCP client logs in, the specified dynamic profile is instantiated and the services defined in the profile are applied to the interface.

This topic contains the following sections:

Attaching a Dynamic Profile to All DHCP Subscriber or All DHCP Client Interfaces

To attach a dynamic profile to all DHCP subscriber or all DHCP client interfaces:

  1. At the DHCP configuration hierarchy, use the dynamic-profile statement to specify the name of the dynamic profile to attach to all interfaces.
    • For DHCP local server:

    • For DHCP relay agent:

  2. (Routers only) Optionally, you can configure the attribute to use when attaching the specified profile.

    You can include either the aggregate-clients option to enable multiple DHCP subscribers to share the same VLAN logical interface, or the use-primary option to specify that the primary dynamic profile is used. The aggregate-clients option does not apply to demux subscriber interfaces. The two options are mutually exclusive.

    • To enable multiple subscribers to share the same VLAN logical interface:

    • To use the primary dynamic profile:

Attaching a Dynamic Profile to a Group of DHCP Subscriber Interfaces or a Group of DHCP Client Interfaces

Before you begin:

To attach a dynamic profile to a group of interfaces:

  1. At the DHCP configuration hierarchy, specify the name of the interface group and the dynamic profile to attach to the group.
    • For DHCP local server:

    • For DHCP relay agent:

  2. (Routers only) Optionally, you can configure the attribute to use when attaching the specified profile.

    You can include either the aggregate-clients option to enable multiple DHCP subscribers to share the same VLAN logical interface, or the use-primary option to specify that the primary dynamic profile is used. The aggregate-clients option does not apply to demux subscriber interfaces. The two options are mutually exclusive.
