Test DHCP Relay

Description

This example demonstrates how to configure a DHCP relay instance in DUT0 to forward DHCP requests from DUT2 to DUT1.

Scenario

Step 1: Set the following configuration in DUT0 :

set interfaces ethernet eth0 vif 100 address 10.0.0.2/24
set interfaces ethernet eth1 vif 200 address 20.0.0.2/24
set service dhcp-relay INS downstream-interface eth1.200
set service dhcp-relay INS server 10.0.0.1
set service dhcp-relay INS upstream-interface eth0.100
set system login user admin authentication encrypted-password '$6$GSjsCj8gHLv$/VcqU6FLi6CT2Oxn0MJQ2C2tqnRDrYKNF8HIYWJp68nvXvPdFccDsT04.WtigUONbKYrgKg8d6rEs8PjljMkH0'

Step 2: Set the following configuration in DUT1 :

set interfaces ethernet eth0 vif 100 address 10.0.0.1/24
set protocols static route 0.0.0.0/0 next-hop 10.0.0.2
set service dhcp-server shared-network dummy subnet 10.0.0.1/32
set service dhcp-server shared-network remote subnet 20.0.0.0/24 start 20.0.0.50 stop 20.0.0.50
set system login user admin authentication encrypted-password '$6$GSjsCj8gHLv$/VcqU6FLi6CT2Oxn0MJQ2C2tqnRDrYKNF8HIYWJp68nvXvPdFccDsT04.WtigUONbKYrgKg8d6rEs8PjljMkH0'

Step 3: Set the following configuration in DUT2 :

set interfaces ethernet eth0 vif 200 address dhcp
set system login user admin authentication encrypted-password '$6$GSjsCj8gHLv$/VcqU6FLi6CT2Oxn0MJQ2C2tqnRDrYKNF8HIYWJp68nvXvPdFccDsT04.WtigUONbKYrgKg8d6rEs8PjljMkH0'

Step 4: Ping IP address 10.0.0.1 from DUT0:

admin@DUT0$ ping 10.0.0.1 count 1 size 56 timeout 1
Show output
PING 10.0.0.1 (10.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.238 ms

1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.238/0.238/0.238/0.000 ms

Step 5: Run command interfaces ethernet show at DUT2 and check if output contains the following tokens:

20.0.0.50
Show output
---------------------------------------------------------------------
  Name             IP Address           Admin  Oper  Vrf  Description

    eth1                                down   down

Test DHCP Relay With Giaddr

Description

This example demonstrates how to set the gateway IP address (giaddr) in the IP address. This value must be set in an IP address that the DHCP server can reach.
