NX 5500 DHCP Server

[Julio_Oliveira]

Hi,

I have a NX 5500 in VLAN 1 (192.168.1.1) and also have DHCP Server for vlan 10 configured in this controller. (Pool 10.10.10.2 - 10.10.10.5)

The controller is connected to a Switch in VLAN 1 (192.168.1.100) and L3 Vlan 10 (10.10.10.1) configured for APs.

I configured a DHCP-Relay (ip dhcp-relay fwd-path 10.10.10.1 192.168.1.1) and I am not receiving any IP from the controller.

Is there missing something that I should configure?

Good evening Julio,
I don't know if I have understood correctly , but If you want that NX5500 acts as DHCP server for clients connected to VLAN10 usually I simply create the DHCP policy (under Configuration> Services > DHCP server policy) and then I apply this DHCP policy over the specific Device (in this case Configuration > Devices > Your NX5500 > Services > DHCP Server, then select the DHCP Server policy from drop down menu).

I am not very familiar with the CLI commands, but this is an extract of configuration file that results

!
! Configuration of NX5500 version 5.9.2.5-001R

Obviously you must check that VLAN10 is correctly mapped to the desired WLAN, but I took it for assumed...
