  • 1.  DHCP-Server Pool Threshold

    Switch Model: 3810M

    Is there a way to amend the dhcp-server pool threshold limits that are displayed in "show dhcp-server pool <pool-name>" ?

    I want to amend the 'high threshold' value to a lower value to test SNMP trap to monitoring system.

    Thanks.

    Hello @J-Network, I could be wrong but I'm not aware of (or, I wasn't able to find) a CLI command to configure those DHCP related "watermarks" (Low Threshold and/or High Threshold) related to a specific DHCP Server's  pool (it looks like they represent a sort of low/high percentage marks, say 20% and 80%, each one calculated against the total amount of IP addresses that the pool is assigned with, to be leased).

    In my case I have a pool with about 1k (981 to be exact) available IP addresses on the assigned pool's range and so the number related to the High Threshold is equal to the 80% of those 981.

    Hi @parnassus - Thanks for checking.  I also couldn't find anything in the config guides to amend these but wasn't sure if I was missing something.  Yes, that 80% High Threshold value is what I also see on my configured pools.
