LOGICAL L3 ROUTING WITH DHCP

摘要

For a network controller for managing a set of hosts, a method for configuring a host to provide a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) service is described. The method configures a DHCP module in a first host to provide a DHCP service. The method configures a managed forwarding element in the first host to (1) use the DHCP module to obtain network addresses and (2) forward packets using the obtained network addresses. The method configures a second managed forwarding element in a second host to (1) use the DHCP module to obtain network addresses and (2) forward packets using the obtained network addresses.
