Configuring DHCP IP Helper Address, Packet Tracer v. 7.2

[@legendaryphoenix8607]

You have no idea on how big of a help this lesson is to me. I have cracked my skull trying to find a solution to why my DHCP request failed in another subnet from the subnet that contains the DHCP server, despite providing the IP helper-address. Now I know that I need to configure the static routing between the networks. And you showed me how to do it with great detail and precision. Thank you ❤😊

Perfectly Clear Instruction, Kudos Saleh

Thank you for this! All I wanted to know if we could use the ip helper-address command on cisco routers when the DHCP server was also a cisco router, and I also wasn't sure exactly what address to specify on the neighbouring routers. I found plenty of other information out there on configuring dhcp relay with that command, but all the examples were using an actual DHCP server (not a router) which had a single static IP address. So in those cases it was easy to work out what ip to put after the ip helper-address command. But in my case I have a router being the dhcp server, connected to 2 other routers on either side, and 6 separate subnets to give dhcp to. It wasn't immediately clear to me what IP to specify when the dhcp router has multiple interfaces to various networks, and which interfaces to use the commands on. Your explanation really cleared all of that up for me and showed it is possible, so thank you!! Got my lab working too all green lights and DHCP working!

I have 7 Vlans in my network, all they use DHCP , in last two years they were all working well, but nowdays in one Vlan , some connected computers get valid ip addresses automatically others get invalid IP address and it require me to assign a static IP address, how can I solve that issue , inorder to make all the connected computers get valid ip addresses automatically?

[@frikeyerson]

I have it clearer now, but I've got another queston, what would happen if there were several routers? I mean, 3 instead of 2, should I keep using the IP helper address commando with next hop too? Please respond, I am confused.

[@networking8956]

Yes, you can or you can use the ip add of the other interface (g0/1) the important fact here is that the 3 routers know each other because you have created static routes, so they will reach to the designated server (router) ip address in order to pull out addresses from.

Thanks Brooooo

stop saying "they are in the same subnet" Instead use they are in the same BROADCAST DOMAIN!!!!
