b. Use a unique dhcp_class_id in both the dhcptab and the 8K config
file. This dhpc_class_id could have the server's hostname init. In
this case, enter the following in INSTALLFS:
is_network_info_temporary=true
c. And enter your class i.d. as the following in the dhcptab and
INSTALLFS:
dhcp_class_id
3. The user would like to setup the Ignite-UX server as a
"departmental" DHCP server, in which case the IP address leases are
permanent, but they will be isolated to the department's DHCP
server.
a. Set up DHCP on the Ignite-UX server.
b. Enter the following:
Is_network_info_temporary=false
c. And enter your class i.d. as the following in the dhcptab and
INSTALLFS:
dhcp_class_id
Use a unique dhcp_class_id in both the dhcptab and the INSTALLFS
file. This dhcp_class_id could have the server's hostname in it.
4. You want to start using DHCP with this server managing the whole
network.
• Refer to the preceding sections and /usr/sbin/sam, and its
manpage (sam(1M)) for this procedure.
If you want to set up the Ignite-UX system to be a DHCP server, the
default setting will give you Item 2. Otherwise, you can toggle the
is_network_info_temporary keyword to select Item 3.
For more information, see the ink setup_server(1M) and bootpd(1M) man
pages.
Using bootptab as an Alternative to DHCP
If you want to have more control over the allocation of IP addresses and
their mappings to your clients, you can configure entries in
/etc/bootptab for each client. Because BOOTP is a subset of DHCP,
the client's request for a DHCP server will be satisfied with the BOOTP
response.
