George: I am not an dhcp expert but this is what I did. I choose not to use dynamic assigment in my network.
You can consider permanently assign the IP address to a specific macro. In my case, I created a mac specific macro for linea-v245 with its Mac address: # dhtadm -P | grep 0100144FA2574C 0100144FA2574C Macro :BootSrvA=10.6.68.21:BootFile="http://10.6.68.21:5555/cgi-bin/wanboot-cgi": # Then I use dhcpmgr to create an IP address and assign it permanently to this Mac address and it works: # pntadm -P 10.6.68.0 | grep linea-v245 0100144FA2574C 03 10.6.68.63 10.6.68.47 Forever 0100144FA2574C linea-v245 # George Kennedy wrote: > Hello, > > I'm running 2009.06 snv_111b X86 on my AI DHCP server with 2 available > DHCP addresses.
