DHCP configuration

Hello ,

I have created a couple of pools in my dchp configuration file . My problem is that a want to select a list of MACs which has the capability to get an IP of each one of this pools . I know how to deny the access to dhcp , dhcpdeny , but I do not know how to configure a way to autheticate MACs to one or to other pool. Do you know if this is possiblem with the DHCP form ISC?????

Thanks a lot

Re: DHCP configuration

Just scanned ISC's FAQ, and came up with the following:

Write a host statement for each machine with a fixed-address declaration and a hardware declaration, and then declare ``boot-unknown-clients false;'' at the top level. This is all documented in the dhcpd.conf.5 man page.

Would that do it?

Re: DHCP configuration

Try using a using a host-based directive, heres an example I use for netbooting NetBSD installs:

host install {
hardware ethernet 08:00:20:75:10:11;
filename "netbsd";
fixed-address 192.168.0.42;
server-name "install.internal.vpn";
option root-path "/usr/nfsinstall";
}
It is my firm belief that it is a mistake to hold any firm beliefs
