This show command is used to see which DHCP server options that are imported from the Client. For example when connecting to an ISP the DHCP Client receives DNS server IP Addresses, that the inside clients need to use. This information is imported into the DHCP server.

Mercantec#show ip dhcp import
Address Pool Name: Client
Domain Name Server(s): 10.0.0.2
NetBIOS Name Server(s): 10.0.0.2
Domain Name Option: CRemote#show ip dhcp import
Address Pool Name: Client
Domain Name Server(s): 10.0.0.2
NetBIOS Name Server(s): 10.0.0.2
