## Configure the Utilization Threshold

The utilization threshold specifies the upper limit (as a percentage) for the address pool utilization. The range of possible values is 0-100 percent. If the number of IP addresses allocated from the pool is near or above the utilization threshold percentage, the server will log an event in SYSLOG and send an SNMP trap message to the SNMP manager.

In this example, the address pool is `pool 1`, and the utilization threshold is 50%.

1. Create the address pool.

       SEFOS# configure terminal
       SEFOS(config)# ip dhcp pool 1

2. Specify the utilization threshold.

       SEFOS(dhcp-config)# utilization threshold 50
       SEFOS(dhcp-config)# end

3. View the utilization threshold of the address pools.

       SEFOS# show ip dhcp server pools

   The output in switch 1 is:

       Pool Id                      : 1

       End Ip                        : 12.0.0.100
