Title: DHCP assigning IPs
Post by: ElFroggio on February 25, 2015, 08:19:01 PM

Hi,

Is there a way of assigning a IP address according to the mac address. I want to add:

host hpprinter {
  hardware ethernet 38:EA:A7:09:9E:9E;
  fixed-address 192.168.1.16;
}

to dhcpd.conf

Thanks

Syv

what about taking a look at "hostname and addresses" page in server-manager?

and, of course, to the fine manual/documentation?

Yes I have but still I can't find how to assign an ip address to a mac address, the equivalent of a static ip through dhcp

server-manager -> hostnames and addresses -> add hostname -> fill "hostname","comment" fields, set domain to the right one, choose "local" from Location -> next -> set local ip address and fill the Ethernet address field with the mac address -> next -> save

Perfect. What I was missing was the 'local'.

Thanks
