DHCP Snooping missing on M5300-52G3
Hi,
I wanted to set up DHCP snooping, DAI, IP Source Guard on our M5300-52G3.
But in the 'Security > Control' Panel I can't found other choice that 'Captive Portal'
My M5300 version is '11.0.0.31'
I tried via SSH too :
I checked in the User Manual and the dhcp snooping menu is there
Is that Normal ?
Are DHCP Snooping, DAI, IP Source Guard unavailable on M5300-52G3 ?
Thx for your answers
Hi Arnaud_D
It depends on what SDM template that you use.
System > Management > SDM Template Preference- If you use a template for a multicast environment, then you won't have things like DHCP Snooping, DAI, etc.
- If you use a template for an environment not focused around multicast, then you will have other features like DHCP Snooping, DAI and so on.Depends on what you need to use the switch for - set the SDM template accordingly. SDM templates enable you to reallocate system resources to support a different mix of features based on your network requirements.
You can also change it via the CLI. Page 318 onwards.

Hi again,
I do not believe that it will wipe the config. According the the manual I linked:
"After setting the template, you must reboot in order for the configuration change to take effect."That being said, play it safe!
1. Save your config: Maintenance > Save Config > Save Configuration > tick the box and hit Apply.
2. Export your config: Maintenance > Upload > HTTP File Upload > Select "Text configuration" and hit Apply. This will download the config. Save it somewhere safe. This way you can always easily go back to a previous config.
Cheers
