dhcp server

[Shivkumar]

Hi,

How to find out whether a particular server has been configured to receive its ip address from a dhcp server ?

Thanks,
Shiv

Is there a file called /etc/dhcptab available. It is having configuration to get ip-address from dhcp server.

Shiv,

Check the file /etc/rc.config.d/netconf for
DHCP_ENABLE[0]=0 or 1.

0 for DHCP disabled
1 for DHCP enabled


Hope this helps

Hi Shiv ,


To configure dhcp you will need to add client entries in /etc/dhcptab ,

Shiv ,

Alos check for the entry DHCP_ENABLE , under /etc/rc.config.d/netconf file.

Shalom,

Also note that Ignite ships with a small dhcp server which does not use the standard locations above.

This is not intended to service a network, only other HP-UX servers that need to do Ignite boots.
