RE: I E lab 13 - dhcp-server vs ip helper

Hi Guys,

I've been following this topic with great interest (just like all other
topics) and would like to throw in another feature which can be enabled to
get an ip address for R4 from R1 via R5. With the command "ip address-pool
dhcp-proxy-client" under global config R1 acts as a DHCP proxy for incoming
PPP connections over a PPP link.

This command makes it possible to setup a flexible dialin solution because
you only need to configure "peer default ip address pool" on your dialer
interface. With the ip address pool dhcp-proxy-client command the router
looks for a configured ip dhcp server in the config. If it finds one it will
send a DHCP request to the DHCP server and proxy it back through via IPCP to
R4.

The above feature is running at some places I've been, and it's working fine
till now. I don't say that the above feature is the solution for LAB 13 (I
haven't got the book yet, I hope the mailman brings it to me in about a week
:-) but it's just another way to build a solution.

Regards,
Henk

peer ip default address

To specify an IP address, an address from a specific IP address pool, or an
address from the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) mechanism to be
returned to a remote peer connecting to this interface, use the peer default
ip address command in interface configuration mode...

I think this also reinforces the theory that r5 is doing dhcp for the
requesting DDR connected neighbor and passing results back to r4 via ipcp
language....
