the corresponding subnets. The following is the details of configuration inheritance.

■

A newly created child address pool inherits the configurations of its parent address 
pool.

■

For an existing parent-child address pool pair, when you performs a new 
configuration on the parent address pool:

a The child address pool inherits the new configuration if there is no corresponding 

configuration on the child address pool.

b The child address pool does not inherit the new configuration if there is already a 

corresponding configuration on the child address pool.

This section contains configuration information for Pool-Based DHCP Server.

You need to enable DHCP before performing other DHCP-related configurations, 
which take effect only when DHCP is enabled.
