Okay guys,
All of my extensive DHCP configuration experience (which fits on the
back of a personal check sized envelope) has been sought by one of our
customers (me and my big mouth). You see, they have Cisco ASA 5510
firewalls which do DHCP but not reserved IPs which we need to keep these
~!@#$%^ printers from jumping ship.
Were this one location, no problem. Load dhcpd on the application
server, turn off dhcp on the ASA, and go. But they have multiple
locations, each behind their own firewalls. Yes, I know how to
configure one DHCP server for multiple subnets but I am concerned for
the distributed network topology.
My question is about hardware. Looking for a small device booting from
solid state media (USB but not USB...) so that I may have a linux DHCP
server at each location in place of the ASA. Would be even more cool if
I could cascade DHCP from the main server to the remotes (yes I remember
Tilghman talking about having multiple DHCP servers). I think I want a
local "presence" at each location within the respective firewalls, if
for no other reason than WAN meltdowns.
I guess I really should try turning off DHCP on all of the ASAs and try
to run DHCP for all of the subnets of the main server.
Howard
