Greetings;
Persuant to the dhcpd discussion, I have install a local
isc-dhpd-server. I setup a $20 wide block, starting at 192.168.71.100
then setup 3 host entries. I have it working but apparently I need some
clarification as a status request gets me a squawk about the host
paragraph that is actually working:
-------------------
Dec 16 09:47:16 coyote dhcpd[1895]: Dynamic and static leases present
for 192.168.71.110.
Dec 16 09:47:16 coyote dhcpd[1895]: Remove host declaration printer or
remove 192.168.71.110
Dec 16 09:47:16 coyote dhcpd[1895]: from the dynamic address pool for
192.168.71.0/24
-------------------
Q#1:Is this telling me I should move that mac's assignment to .90 or
.121, out of that "pool" from $100 to $120? Or move the pool so 110 does
clash with it?
Q#2: can the current phrase host "printer" be replaced by the alias in
the servers /etc/hosts file?
Q#3: gets a bit subjective. These arm64 boards don't usually come with a
unique mac address for the net ports, so they usually "clone" whatever
mac suits your fancy, so is it safe in a closed environment to use the
same mac string in a host description by just incrementing the last hex
byte of the dummy mac and the last .nnn of the address assigned?
Thank you all.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
