Hi,

SIN, thank you for your reply.  I am using the DHCP that ships with splat.
So is there anything beyond configuring the scopes that needs to be done
then?  I didn't find anything else other than just configuring the scopes.
Based on your response, it sounds like something else needs to be done.

if you're planing on using an H/A cluster, that only applies for CP, not for
dhcp. fyi, isc dhcp ,the one that is being shipped with splat, knows about
failover and you need to configure it to act like one. e.g. two servers are
up, if one of them fails, the other is aware of the leases from the first
and know what to allocate and what not to.

good luck,

sin
