Subject: Re: [PacketFence-users] pfdhcplistener
Dear Derek,
     Thanks for your quick response.   I think I 
could not describe my problem/query properly.

DHCPD is running on only one interface (eth0) of my PF server, no issue with 
that.

Actually at the WAN side (upstream) of my PF server there is another DHCP 
server is running (though PF server WAN has static IP). Since pfdhcplistener is 
running at eth1(WAN) also, in the node (web)page I can see many unregistered 
nodes of WAN network which I don't want.

    I want to see only those nodes in the webpage which are 
under PF server and who are getting IP addresses from DHCP server running in PF 
server (on eth0). Hope pfdhcplistener on eth0 only can catch those. 

So I want to run only one instance of pfdhcplistener on interface eth0 
(pfdhcplistener_eth0). Please let me know how can I do that.

Thanks again Derek.

Regards,
--Chinmay

Subject: Re: [PacketFence-users] pfdhcplistener
  Chinmay,The packetfence server is working as a DHCP server.I see that two 
pfdhcplisteners are 
running: pfdhcplistener_eth0, pfdhcplistener_eth1.But I want to run 
only one pfdhcplistener viz. pfdhcplistener_eth0. Can it be possible (or 
it may cause other problem)? Which config item do I need to modify for 
that?‘pfdhcplistener’, as its name says, listen for dhcp packets.PacketFence 
starts a ‘pfdhcplistener’ daemon on each of the required network interfaces (in 
this case, management and inline).‘pfdhcplistener’ is not acting as a DHCP 
server, dhcpd is. ‘pfdhcplistener’ is only listening to DHCP packet for MAC 
<-> IP association useful in PacketFence.If you do a ps uafx | grep 
dhcpdyou should see the dhcpd daemon running with only eth0 as listening 
interface.
