DHCP is a superset of bootp. joind can be configured to deal with either
DHCP,
BOOTP, or both. The old bootpd program can only handle bootp.
joind can support multiple IP subnets as long as each subnet has its own
interface. If the DHCP server has one network interface for 128.1 and
another for 128.2 then it will work.

8544.5 | One more question... | VAXRIO::MIRIAM | Unix Group - CSC/Brazil | Tue Jan 28 1997 14:30 | 29 |
|
Still talking about multiple IP subnets, the customer has two
different networks connected by a router. He is planning to have two
DHCP servers, one in each network as shown bellow.
DHCP
server
|
----+-------------------------+-------------------- 128.1
|
Router
/
/
Router
|
----+-------------------------+-------------------- 128.2
|
DHCP
server
Is it possible that DHCP server located in 128.2 provides a address
for a client located in 128.1? Note that we don't want it to happen
the customer is affraid that this can happen by mistake or because the
local server is down.
Thank you for the help,
Miriam

8544.6 | define the ranges, don't overlap them | SMURF::DUSTIN | | Wed Jan 29 1997 16:44 | 7 |
| You define ranges of IP addresses served, so as long as you
define one server to hand out addresses in the 128.1 subnet
range and the other server to hand out 128.2 subnets, you
should be all set.

John,
I think I didn't make myself clear.
Suppose that the environment is defined with two DHCP servers, each
one in each local network. The addresses were separated in two ranges
each one managed by each server.
What will happen if a client on "physical network 128.1" ask for an
address and the DHCP server of network 128.1 is down? The client will
be served by the server of network 128.2 or he won't get any address?
Thanks,
Miriam

8544.8 | should work ok | SMURF::DUSTIN | | Mon Feb 03 1997 16:44 | 9 |
| He won't get any address since there is only 1 server in "his"
subnet, and that one is down. His request would have to be
forwarded across a gateway to the other network, which would be
treated differently there; it would not be a local address request,
it would be a remote request, for the other subnet not served by
that DHCP daemon. So no address would be assigned.
