  • Article

The DhcpAddSubnetElementV4 function adds an element describing a feature or aspect of the subnet to the subnet entry in the DHCP database. This function extends DhcpAddSubnetElement by incorporating subnet elements that consider client type.

Note  This function is not available in Windows previous to Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 1.
 

Syntax

DWORD DHCP_API_FUNCTION DhcpAddSubnetElementV4(
  [in] DHCP_CONST WCHAR                       *ServerIpAddress,
  [in] DHCP_IP_ADDRESS                        SubnetAddress,
  [in] DHCP_CONST DHCP_SUBNET_ELEMENT_DATA_V4 *AddElementInfo
);

Parameters

[in] ServerIpAddress

Pointer to a Unicode string that contains the IP address of the subnet DHCP server.

[in] SubnetAddress

DHCP_IP_ADDRESS structure that contains the IP address of the subnet.

[in] AddElementInfo

DHCP_SUBNET_ELEMENT_DATA_V4 structure that contains the element data to add to the subnet. The V4 structure adds support for differentiation between DHCP and BOOTP clients.
