ISC DHCP server configuration
This section shows you how to configure a Linux machine running an Internet Systems
Consortium (ISC) DHCP server to use the Colubris Networks vendor class. The procedure
assumes that you have a Linux or Unix server that is running the ISC DHCP server.
You configure the ISC DHCP server by editing its configuration file; specifically, the main
configuration file, /etc/dhcpd.conf.
Following is a simple example of the /etc/dhcpd.conf configuration file:
# dhcpd.conf
ddns-update-style ad-hoc;
option domain-name "colubris.com";
option domain-name-servers 172.25.1.3;
default-lease-time 3600;
subnet 172.25.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 172.25.1.100 172.25.1.150;
option routers 172.25.1.1;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option broadcast-address 172.25.1.255;
}
subnet 172.25.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 172.25.2.100 172.25.2.150;
option routers 172.25.2.1;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option broadcast-address 172.25.2.255;
}
