We would like to add two "option" lines to ASL v5.012 (and just tried with 5.013 as well) DHCP server in order to enable DHCP clients to perform a netowork boot from a TFTP server.
option bootfile-name mba.exe;
option tftp-server-name 10.200.1.200;
We appended them to the end of
/var/sec/chroot-dhcps/etc/dhcpd.conf-default
and then disabled and re-enabled the DHCP server in the Webadmin interface. Unfortunately, then the DHCP server does not reply to any DHCP requests anymore!?
The resulting /var/sec/chroot-dhcps/etc/dhcpd.conf is appended to the end of this message below.
Questions:
1. Which DHCP server does ASL v5 actually use, e.g. are the two labels "bootfile-name" (for option 67) "tftp-server-name" (for option 60) in the additional optional lines actually correct & supported?
2. Is there any way to make sure that the two additional option lines end up within "group {}" statement, e.g.
group {
subnet 10.200.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
...
}
option domain-name-servers 10.200.1.254;
option routers 10.200.1.254;
option bootfile-name mba.exe;
option tftp-server-name 10.200.1.200;
}
We tried a number of ways of placing the two lines in the filr dhcpd.conf-default, but did not manage to have them ending up within the group {} statement of the file dhcpd.conf.
Thanks in advance for any hints,
Rolf
