installadm list doesn't do much right now.  What kinds of
parameters are you after?

You don't need to do a specific 'create-client'.

When a client "asks for service", this works in conjunction
with how the macros on the DHCP server are set up.

The 'boot' phase of an AI client goes first to a DHCP server,
which directs it to an AI server.  If you've got IPs allocated
to the macro specifically created for a particular install service
on an AI server, it'll point the client to the right place.

If your DHCP server is also your AI server, and you originally
invoked 'create-service' with the -i and -c options, this macro
and DHCP setup mentioned above would have been automatically
created for you.

Not explicitly.  The DHCP server setup (and hence the network
on which responses to clients come out) can be controlled, but
there are currently some bugs with that, see bug 6182.
