Thanks. I'll give a try. ________________________________ Gönderen: Ralf Horstmann <r...@lists.ackstorm.de> Gönderildi: 10 Haziran 2021 Perşembe 08:42 Kime: misc@openbsd.org <MISC@openbsd.org> Bilgi: Valdrin MUJA <valdrin_m...@outlook.com> Konu: Re: bind dhcpd to IP address
Hi Valdrin, that setup works fine. You would use "ip helper-address" on the Ciscos to forward the DHCP requests to your OpenBSD box. The forwarded requests use the specified helper address as unicast destination. No need to have the VLANs present on your OpenBSD box. I'm running dhcpd without -u for that. dhcpd will pickup all packets with destination port 67 on the specified interface via bpf. No need to bind to a specific IP. I understand your last question as: Can dhcpd provide leases for subnets when the dhcpd box has no IP addresses within the range? The answer is yes. You will need subnet declarations for all pools in dhcpd.conf though.
