Description
The client command assigns attributes to a specific client entry.
These attributes determine what type of IP address, policy, or
both that Network Registrar assigns to the requesting host.
Network Registrar always stores the client identifier (MAC
address or default) in lowercase characters.
Because the DHCP server reads the client-specific configuration
information each time a request comes in, you do not have to
reload the server after modifying it. However, you must reload
the server if you modify the default client configuration.
The attributes you can assign include such things as
a class of client, a policy, an action, and the inclusion or
exclusion of scope selection tags. The DHCP server looks up these
properties to determine how it should process a host request for
an IP address.
If you have common client attributes to configure, such as selection
criteria, use the client-class so that multiple client
configurations can reference the attributes.
You can specify the client by using the MAC address or some
other unique client identifier related to the client-lookup-id
that is specified in the client's associated client-class.
A sample Ethernet MAC address might be 1,6,00:a0:24:2e:9c:20
client name create [attribute=value…]
client default create [attribute=value…]
Creates the client identifier as a MAC address or the word default
(and optionally defines its attributes). The default client configuration
applies to all clients that do not have an explicit configuration. If an
entry for the client already exists, the command overwrites it.
If using a MAC address, it should be in the form hardware, length,
address (without spaces and including the commas):
