That should be:

   hardware ethernet 08:00:2b:4c:a3:82;

 Hello,
 
 I want to setup a diskless node and it should boot from a server. The guide 
 in http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/PXE/PXE_Setup 
 http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/PXE/PXE_Setup explains DHCP setup. However I 
 want to assign static IP to the node. As a result, I have to add the node's 
 MAC address somewhere in the server's configuration file.
 
 Where should I do that?
 
 Try googling static dhcp lease linux.
 
 For example on a RH/CentOS/Fedora platform acting as your DHCP server, in 
 /etc/dhcpd.conf:
 
 #
 
 # assign a static lease to our printer
 
 #
 
 host lj4100 {
 
         hardware 08:00:2b:4c:a3:82;
 
         fixed-address 192.168.1.125;
 
 }

Thanks. It seems that DNSmsq is better than DHCP configuration.

Please look at the documentation here - provided are the snippets for 
dhcpd.conf,
pxelinux config files, etc:
