Create Subnet Pool

A subnet pool is a collection of subnets. Subnet pools enable the DHCP server to assign addresses to multiple logical networks on a single physical network.

To create a subnet pool:

  1. In the DHCP Service window of the DNS/DHCP Java*-based Management Console utility, click Create on the tool bar.

  2. Select Subnet Pool, then click OK.

  3. Enter a unique subnet pool name in the field provided.

  4. Enter the eDirectoryTM context where the subnet pool record will be placed.

  5. Check the Define Additional Properties check box to view the newly created subnet pool from a detail view window and set the other properties.

    This window appears after the subnet pool is successfully created. This window can be used to add subnets to the pool.

  6. Click Create.
