Dell N3048 DHCP pool limit

Hi everyone,

  I have 4 Dell N3048 switches, configured in 2 stacks of 2 switches each one. All of them have 6.1.2.4 firmware software. They offer connectivity to a BigData cluster, eah stack for a rack of servers. I tried to configure DHCP server on the Dell switches in order to provide a static IP address to the management interface of the servers in the rack.

  I managed without problems to configure the static DHCP pools for the first 16 server, but I am unable to do so for a further one (I have 20 servers each rack). When I try to create a new DHCP pool I get:

#configure

#ip dhcp pool NewPool

Could not create DHCP pool.

It seems that the N3048 does not allow for more than 16 DHCP pools, which is the number I already created. I could not find any hint on this limit in any documentation of the swich (CLI, UserGuide of the 6.1.2.4).

Is there such a limit?

If there is such a limit, is it possible to solve this problem in a different way? I am creating a single DHCP pool for each static IP address, which is the procedure I found in the manuals. Is is possible to have a single DHCP pool with more static IP addresses (each one reserved to a specific MAC)?

 

  Thank you all.

      Fbota.
