DHCP-Relay on XGS1930-52HP

Arvee

Is it possible to set a DHCP-relay via Nebula cloud on the XGS1930-52HP, or is that a standalone config only feature?

Hi @Arvee,

DHCP Relay is a standalone mode feature currently.

Could you share your scenario of why you need this feature in Nebula?

Hi Melen,

I'm replacing an older HP Procurve switch that was doing very simple routing duties with static routes and VLAN for a VoIP install.

The DHCP server for the data and voice subnets is on the phone controller (Mitel) on the Voice VLAN and subnet as that was the reccomendation of the phone people. Due to the DHCP options the Mitel phones need to boot.

We did try a Windows DHCP server on the data subnet instead many years ago and it was prone to failure with the Mitel phones as the phone guy warned, so DHCP duties were moved to the phone controller.

I do have the switch in standalone mode (and it is working very well), but would like Nebula as the office this switch is physically located is over 4 hours from the home office.
