I am trying to set up my laptop to acquire an IP address from a DHCP server based on a specific 'host identifier' which is not the MAC address.
subnet 192.168.156.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { option routers 192.168.156.101; pool { range 192.168.156.102 192.168.156.120; deny unknown clients; } pool { range 192.168.156.201 192.168.156.220; allow unknown clients; } } host ebony { option dhcp-client-identifier "ebony"; fixed-address 192.168.156.104; }
I don't know if it is causing the problem, but I believe the fixed address should NOT be an address within the range statement. -- Joe & Sesil Morris New Tribes Mission Email Address: Joe_Morris@ntm.org Web Address: www.mydestiny.net/~joe_morris "All I have seen teaches me to trust the Creator for all I have not seen." --Ralph Waldo Emerson
