  • 1.  DHCP Question

    Posted 05-31-2015 19:35

    We had SRX240H reset to factory settings.

     

    We noticed that DHCP server is still there as follows:

     

    dhcp {
                router {
                    192.168.1.1;
                }
                pool 192.168.1.0/24 {
                    address-range low 192.168.1.2 high 192.168.1.254;
                }
                propagate-settings ge-0/0/0.0;
            }
        }

     

    QUESTIONS:


    Does DHCP server comes with SRX240H by default?

    Should it have been removed when it was reset to factory settings?

    Does this server active now and distributing addresses?

    How to disable it without deleting?

    Hi,

     

    This is come by -default. This is given with respect to configuration through GUI. If you connect through port ge-0/0/0.0 with your pc and with your browser you can configure the SRX device. 

     

    By default it is actng as a DHCP server at the base level so that we can easily configure SRX over GUI browser.

     

     

    Please accept this as solution

     

    Kudos will always accepted.

     

    REGARDS

    We used console port to configure SRX.

    We will have a different use for port ge-0/0/0.0

    Is it only active in respect to port ge-0/0/0.0 and does not affect anything else?

    How to disable this DHCP server?

    It propgates the settings like dns from the ge-0/0/0 interface. If you only want to disable the dhcp server you can do something like this:

     

    marcel@srx04#

    deactivate system services dhcp

    commit

     

    If you want to delete the complete dhcp server config:

     

    marcel@srx04#

    delete system services dhcp

    commit

    So, thearetically speaking, if I put IP Polycom phones (or Vonage devices or MagicJack, etc) on interface ge-0/0/0.0 the DHCP will be assigning IP addresses to the phones? Of course, IP phones would have its own vlan. Will this solution work for phones as well as described above?
