By default, the DHCP server is not configured or active. When a DHCP scope is defined, the system serves IP addresses to all devices connected to the interface and which match the general DHCP scope. Configuration is a two-step process. First, the general DHCP scope and configuration is configured and created. Second, IP address ranges (Network Range) are defined to be used as server IP addresses and as IP address reservations for specific hosts. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/763c5fb1-b9af-4ccd-9ad6-cf28ae4cd5a3/Images/Documentation/image-1678710348641.png)
