If you have a separate DHCP server for laptops, etc,
the simplest thing to do is to allow *that* server to
serve addresses to Sun Rays also.

This is why when you run 'utadm -A <subnet>' the default is
to *not* allocate addresses.  We recommend that you take that
option.  The Sun Ray server will continue to offer Sun Ray
vendor-specific boot parameters *only*, and only to Sun Rays.

You can also investigate the DNS boot configuration options,
and offer DHCP option 66.  See section 7 of the Administration
Guide or read Thin Guy's blog for more details.

Does that help?

Hi,

I have configured some sunrays in kiosk mode which connects to a group of
sunray servers using the public University network. Each sunray server is
offering a pool of few IP addresses. The problem is the sunray servers
seem to offer DHCP addresses to laptops or PCs which are set of get IP
addresses using DHCP. As a result, this create a denial of service for the
sunray which gives up connecting to the sunray servers due to lack of
spare IP addresses :-(

I've configured the sunray dhcp servers via the native sunray utilities. I
would expect the Solaris dhcp servers with the sunray software to only
grant IP addresses to sunray appliances. Should not it be possible to
configure this by filtering the specific sunray dhcp extension? Is this
feasible and what is the command to use ?

Thanks,

Thierry.
