How To Reserve An IP Address In CISCO DHCP Server


بسم الله والحمد لله والصلاة والسلام علي رسول الله وآله وصحبه وإخوانه وسلم

How To Reserve An IP Address In CISCO DHCP Server

if you wanna  reserve an ip address for a certain client, for example a server in CISCO DHCP server follow these steps:

1- first you need to make a DHCP pool for this client alone.
2- find the mac address of the client "for example use (ipconfig / all) for windows and (ifconfig) for Linux" at the client, or you can use network scanners to find this information.
3- add 01 to the beginning of the mac address you got, for example:
if the mac address is 502c.e40e.fabf  add 01 to the beginning of the mac to be 0150.2ce4.0efa.bf.
01 indicates that it is an Ethernet client.
4- you can add optional features like the client name.
5- specify the lease period to be infinite.

Example:

ip dhcp pool amnetwrok
   host 192.168.10.1 255.255.0.0
   client-identifier  0150.2ce4.0efa.bf
   client-name AM-Client
   lease infinite

Tunnel Interface & EIGRP Flapping Routes Case Study

 
بسم الله والحمد لله والصلاة والسلام علي رسول الله وآله وصحبه وإخوانه وسلم
 
Tunnel Interface & EIGRP  Flapping Routes Case Study
 
 in this case, at first i had a Tunnel interface with real ip to connect to a remote site using this tunnel. i used static routes.
after that, we have configured EIGRP to work over MPLS, i have given the static routes used with the tunnel a higher administrative distance just to allow EIGRP  to be the primary routing protocol, and to use the tunnel as backup solution.
for example:

ip route 192.168.10.0 255.255.0.0 10.10.10.1 200

where 10.10.10.1 is the tunnel interface identifier "also it may be the other end of the tunnel identifier".

the problem was that, some routes may flap, because i forgot to shutdown the tunnel interface.
shutting down the tunnel interface, solved the problem.

Hope that has been informative to you.
