DHCP config with MS loopback adapter












Here is the attached snapshot and config of my dhcp on 3725 router to get the desired result. Yes I m excited!

Configuring Inter VLAN routing and DHCP-Scope-VLAN Bindings

Hats off to Taha for digging it to the level it demanded, this exercise has polished DHCP and inter vlan routing issues. the details of the config are as follows



Replace the 3550 with 3725 hooked with NM-16-ESW, yep im speaking the GNS-3 language, the IP addressing is different from the above image but topology remains the same, the configs are follows.


Layer3_Switch Config

!---ENABLING IP ROUTING

conft# ip routing

!---INTERFACE TO DHCP ROUTER

conft# interface fa1/1
conft# no switchport
conft# ip address 200.1.1.1 255.255.255.0

!---CREATING DATA AND VOICE VLANS

conft# vlan 10

Voice Lab Setup 17-1-09

I have started setting up my home voice lab with initial infrastructure using 3725 routers at HQ, BR1 and BR2. I have added wic-2T and nm-16esw cards in each router. The initial step include the frame-relay setup among above 3 routers using frame relay switch. We can ping each HQ > BR1 and vice versa and also From HQ > BR2 and vice versa.

The config snap and topology snap is attached for your review.

Next steps would be adding HQ to local LAN, configuring vlans, dhcp server and ospf.
