Chapter 13 Working With Network Services 133
Adding a DHCP Subnet
You may already have a subnet for each port you enabled when you installed and set
up the server. You can use the serveradmin settings command to check for subnets
that the server set up for you; see “Viewing DHCP Service Settings” on page 129.
You can use the serveradmin settings command to add other subnets to your DHCP
configuration.
Note: Be sure to include the special first setting (ending with = create). This is how
you tell serveradmin to create the necessary settings array with the specified
subnet ID.
To add a subnet:
$ sudo serveradmin settings
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID
= create
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID
:WINS_NBDD_server = nbdd-server
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:WINS_node_type = node-type
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:net_range_start = start-address
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:WINS_scope_id = scope-ID
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:dhcp_router = router
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:net_address = net-address
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:net_range_end = end-address
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:lease_time_secs = lease-time
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:dhcp_ldap_url:_array_index:0 = ldap-server
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:WINS_secondary_server = wins-server-2
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:descriptive_name = description
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:WINS_primary_server = wins-server-1
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:dhcp_domain_name = domain
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:dhcp_enabled = (yes|no)
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID
:dhcp_domain_name_server:_array_index:0 =
dns-server-1
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:dhcp_domain_name_server:_array_index:1 =
dns-server-2
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:net_mask = mask
dhcp:subnets:_array_id:subnetID:selected_port_name = port
