Advanced DHCP Server Properties
This chapter describes how to set up some of the more advanced DHCP server properties. Before clients
can use DHCP for address assignment, you must add at least one scope to the server. This is described
in Chapter 19, “Configuring Scopes and Networks.” The additional properties are:
� Configuring BOOTP, page 22-1
� Defining Advanced Server Parameters, page 22-3
� Integrating Windows System Management Servers, page 22-7

Chapter 22 Advanced DHCP Server Properties Configuring BOOTP Every Network Registrar DHCP policy has attributes with which you can configure the information you want returned directly in the file, siaddr, or sname fields. The Network Registrar DHCP server also supports a configuration parameter with which you can configure the policy options and determine which of the file, sname, or siaddr values you want returned to the BOOTP device. Network Registrar supports an analogous configuratio

Chapter 22 Advanced DHCP Server Properties Defining Advanced Server Parameters Moving or Decommissioning BOOTP Clients When you move or decommission a BOOTP client, you can re-use its lease. To decommission a BOOTP client, you must remove its lease reservation from the scope and force its lease to be available. Force the lease available in the local cluster Web UI, or set scope name removeReservation and lease ipaddr force-available in the CLI. Using Dynamic BOOTP When you use dynamic BOO

Chapter 22 Advanced DHCP Server Properties Integrating Windows System Management Servers As a complication, the server also keeps track of the time when it last heard from the client. Known as the last transaction time, sites sometimes use this information as a debugging aid. Maintaining this time robustly requires a write to the database on every client interaction. The last-transaction-time- granularity attribute is the one to set. (See the attribute description in Table 22-1 on page 22

Chapter 22 Advanced DHCP Server Properties Using Extensions to Affect DHCP Server Behavior You can solve the problem of the two IP addresses by writing either of these extensions: � One that causes the DHCP server to drop the Token Ring (6) hardware type packet. � One that changes the Token Ring packet to an Internet packet and then switches it back again on exit. Although this extension would be more complex, the DHCP client could thereby use either return from the DHCP server. You can w

Generally, a higher mcd-blobs-per-bulk-read attribute value results in faster server start and reload times, at the cost of using more memory. Values can be set to any number between 1 and 2500 using the mcd-blobs-per-bulk-read DHCP server attribute. The current default is 256 blobs. � Consider sett

Chapter 22 Advanced DHCP Server Properties Configuring Virtual Private Networks and Subnet Allocation If the server-id-override suboption of the relay-agent-info option (82) exists, the DHCP server uses its value to compare to that of the dhcp-server-identifier option in the reply packet. Any packet that the DHCP client unicasts then goes directly to the relay agent and not to the server (which may, in fact, be inaccessible from the client). Both partners in a failover environment can re

For example, lease names can have this syntax: vpn/ipaddress For example, red/192.168.40.0 A VPN can be any unique text string except the reserved words global and all.
