Hi
This should be easy, but it is confusing:
Task is:
Supply IP addresses to the users at the local Ethernet segment.
My understanding of the task is router should be DHCP server.
My confusion is:
1) Do we need "service DHCP" command? It works without it, too. Why is
the command there, then? When to use it?
Command-reference says:
service DHCP
To enable the Cisco IOS Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
server and relay agent features on your router, use the service DHCP
global configuration command. To disable the Cisco IOS
DHCP server and relay agent features, use the no form of this command.
2) DHCP Configuration Task List also says:
Configuring a DHCP Database Agent or Disabling DHCP Conflict Logging
(Required)
It says required. But it works without it, as well.
What is correct? What is solution what brings points? Just making it
work or putting this 2 commands, too?
General question:
Is it mistake putting some commands in config, no matter they are not
needed? "Just in case"?
Thanks
Niksa
