It suggests to use DHCP Option 82 function on the device most closing to the DHCP Client in
order to precisely orientate the user location.
3.2.2 DHCP Server
DHCP Server Application Environment
In the following situation, DHCP Server is usually used to achieve the IP address
distribution.
Network scale is large and manual configuration requires a log of work and it is
hard to manage the whole network centrally.
The number of host in network is greater than the number of supported IP
address in network. It cannot distribute a fixed IP address for every host and limit
the number of user accessing the network (for example, Interface access service
provider is this case). Most users must obtain IP address dynamically by DHCP
Server.
Only a few hosts in network need fixed IP address and most hosts do not have
this command of fixed IP address.
DHCP Server Address Management
DHCP Server chooses and distributes IP address and other related parameters from
the address pool. When the device used as the DHCP Server receives the DHCP
request from Client, it will choose appropriate address pool according to configuration
and choose a free IP address from the address pool. The device will send the free
address with other related parameters (DNS Server address, address lease period) to
Client.
DHCP Server Security Function
Fake Server Detection Function
In network, if there is DHCP Server secretly set up, when other users apply IP
address, this DHCP Server will communicate with DHCP Client and result in
wrong IP address obtained by user and the user cannot access the network
normally. This kind of DHCP Server is called fake DHCP Server.
After enabling fake DHCP Server detection function on DHCP Server, when
DHCP Client sends DHCP-REQUEST message, DHCP Server will obtain the IP
