DCHP does far more than just offer IP addresses.
-a configures private interconnects. This means it plumbs up an
interface, sets DHCP for that interface to provide IP addresses and
vendor specific tags (such as auth server, firmware server, firmware
rev, etc) , and also configures the tftpboot directory populating it
with firmware and parms files. Connections are limited to that interface.
-A does the same thing for an plumbed up interface but does not
configure a range of IP addresses to be handed out. Connections are
limited to the subnet that was defined with -A
-L allows LAN connections from any network. It does not provide IP
addresses or vendor class tags, nor does it populate the firmware
directory with firmware files or parms files.

The utadm tool does configure the DHCP server, but it also defines the
interconnect for the DTUs. You may need to do "utadm -L on" after
running the configuration to enable the interconnect.
it is clear to me that the -L switch of utadm does something else then
configuring the DHCP server.
but what about -a and -A?
do they change any setting of the ray server?
or (so i thought so far) does -a and -A only configure DHCP?
