Yes indeed, follow the how-to, it should be straightforward. > and does ahcpd support multiple network configurations? It can broadcast several subnets, but it is then up to your client to choose the good one (or several of them). You should edit /etc/ahcp/ahcp-config.sh to suit your needs (or use /etc/ahcp/ahcp-local.sh). See http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/ahcp/ahcpd.html for more details. There might be a better way to handle your use case but I can't figure it out. > or i guess i could use ahcpd on endpoints, but how does say windows client get > the ip if their 2-3 hops out, is the dhcp broadcast through the network Dhcp is NOT broadcast through the network, but, sadly, ahcp is not available for Windows (because we only use MacOs, BSD or Linux here). So I do not see any solution for your Windows clients right now (except using static IPs).
