Cấu hình DHCP Server trên Unix!

dhcp

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) automatically assigns IP addresses and other network configuration information (subnetmask, broadcast address, etc) to computers on a network.

A client configured for DHCP will send out a broadcast request to the DHCP server requesting an address. The DHCP server will then issue a "lease" and assign it to that client. The time period of a valid lease can be specified on the server. DHCP reduces the ammount of time required to configure clients and allows one to move a computer to various networks and be configured with the appropriate IP address, gateway and subnet mask. For ISP's it conserves the limited number of IP addresses it may use. DHCP servers may assign a "static" IP address to specified hardware. Microsoft NetBios information is often included in the network information sent by the DHCP server.
DHCP assignment:

Lease Request: Client broadcasts request to DHCP server with a source address of 0.0.0.0 and a destination address of 255.255.255.255. The request includes the MAC address which is used to direct the reply.
IP lease offer: DHCP server replies with an IP address, subnet mask, network gateway, name of the domain, name servers, duration of the lease and the IP address of the DHCP server.
Lease Selection: Client recieves offer and broadcasts to al DHCP servers that will accept given offer so that other DHCP server need not make an offer.
The DHCP server then sends an ack to the client. The client is configured to use TCP/IP.
Lease Renewal: When half of the lease time has expired, the client will issue a new request to the DHCP server.
Starting DHCP server: service dhcpd start
(or /etc/rc.d/init.d/dhcpd start for Red Hat, Fedora and CentOS Linux distributions)

Sample DHCP server config file: (DHCP v3.0.1) /etc/dhcpd.conf
(Bạn có thể tham khảo tại thư mục /usr/share/doc/dhcp-3.X/dhcp.conf.sample)
Lưu ý: đổi tên thành dhcpd.conf

Kiểm tra tập tin cấu hình (xem có lỗi xảy ra hay không?), theo các dòng lện sau:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/dhcpd configtest

(Một số HĐH Unix khác Bạn có dùng: /usr/sbin/dhcpd -f)

Note: The MAC addresses for the static address name server (ns2.your-domain.com), can be obtained with the command /sbin/ifconfig:

eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00 : 02 : C3 : D0 : E5 : 83
inet addr:40.175.42.254 Bcast:40.175.42.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::202:b3ff:fef0:e484/64 Scope:Link

RX bytes:3406445 (3.2 MiB) TX bytes:439612 (429.3 KiB)

When dhcpd is running it will generate entries in the file: /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases (Bạn có thể kiểm chứng tập tin này để biết nó đã hoạt động hay chưa? trong trường hợp chưa tồn tại tập tin này bạn phải tạo bằng tay)
Ví dụ: nó hiển thị như sau:

lease 192.168.1.128 {
starts 2 2004/12/01 20:07:05;
ends 3 2004/12/02 08:07:05;
hardware ethernet 00:00:e8:4a:2c:5c;
uid 01:00:00:e8:4c:5d:31;
client-hostname "Node1";
}

Nghĩa là DHCP Server đã cấp phát

LANs separated by routers: In order to have your DHCP broadcast pass through a router on the the next network, one must configure the router to allow DHCP relay. (Cisco: ip-helper address, Juniper: dhcp-relay) The local lan subnet{ } configuration must come before the configuration directives of the remote LANs.

Chúc thành công,
