Product: NGAF
Version: 8.0.47

1. Introduction
1.1 Scenario
In a small Enterprise Network, the network design is a Router-on-a-Stick (ROAS) setup in which the different VLANs can pass through a single connection.
Configure the Sangfor NGAF as the DHCP Server and provide IPv4 addresses on all the endpoints on the network in a ROAS setup.

1.2 Other Details
1) The VLANs (Virtual LANs) are VLAN10 (172.16.10.0/ 24) and VLAN20 (172.16.20.0/ 24).
2) The Core Switch port that is directly connected to the Sangfor NGAF is configured as a trunk port
3) Desktops’ IPs are assigned dynamically.

2. Configuration Guide
2.1 NGAF Configuration
Step 1. Choose the interface eth1 and create Subinterface for VLAN 10 and 20.
Go to Network > Interfaces >Subinterfaces and click Add, as shown below:

Step 2. A new window will pop up when you click the Add Button. Then put the following details:
Physical Interfaces: eth1
1) VLAN ID: 10
2) Description: Sub-interface for VLAN10
3) Static IP: 172.16.10.1/255.255.255.0
Then click Save.

Step 3. Repeat Step 2 for VLAN 20.
1) Physical Interfaces: eth1
2) VLAN ID: 20
3) Description: Sub-interface for VLAN10
4) Static IP: 172.16.20.1/255.255.255.0
Then click Save.
Step 4. Configure the subinterface (eth1.10) for DHCP.
Go to Network > DHCP > DHCP Options and click Add, and put the following details as shown below:
1) Service Type: DHCP Server
2) Name: DHCP_Vlan10
3) Description: DHCP for Vlan10
4) Interface: eth1.10
5) IP Range: 172.16.10.100-172.16.10.254
6) Netmask: 255.255.255.0
7) DHCP Gateway: 172.16.10.1
8) DNS Server: Specified
9) Preferred DNS: 8.8.8.8
Then click Save

Step 5. Configure the subinterface (eth1.20) for DHCP
Go to Network > DHCP > DHCP Options and click Add, and put the following details as shown below:
1) Service Type: DHCP Server
2) Name: DHCP_Vlan20
3) Description: DHCP for Vlan20
4) Interface: eth1.20
5) IP Range: 172.16.20.100-172.16.20.254
6) Netmask: 255.255.255.0
7) DHCP Gateway: 172.16.20.1
8) DNS Server: Specified
9) Preferred DNS: 8.8.8.8
Then click Save.

Step 6. Verify the 2 DHCP Poll added as shown below:

Step 7. Verify if the devices can get dynamic IP Addresses by issuing the ipconfig/all at the cmd.
PC1
PC2

3. Precaution
1). Always verify the VLAN configuration if the endpoint can’t get the right IP Address.
2). DHCP in ROAS is a real-world scenario but its single line makes it subject to failure. I suggest to have another line for redundancy.

Hello, thanks for sharing. Can you share what will be the configuration of STATIC ROUTES, should I still add the IP Sub netmask of  VLAN 10 & VLAN 20? Thanks in advance.
