DHCP Emulation Testing with Agilent N2X

This document describes the procedures for testing with the DHCP Emulation feature in three specific scenarios (back-to-back, client to L2 switch to server, and client to relay agent to server), and describes how to configure traffic meshes in each. Only DHCP client pools and server pools will be discussed as
the DHCP client relay agent setup is essentially identical to that of client pools except that the relay agent and server IP addresses must also be configured.

To configure a specific scenario, skip to the “Testing Specific DHCP Scenarios” section. That section will refer back to the “Common Steps – Device Setup” and “Common Steps – Starting the Emulation” sections that were skipped, as many steps are common among the scenarios.

In addition to the steps listed in this document, the N2X Online Help section for DHCP emulation also provides much useful information related to this feature.
