Configure DHCP
When you configure a private, isolated network that is used specifically for provisioning, the OS
Provisioning Server uses the DHCP server it installed to provide addresses and network boot information
to nodes connected to the network.
Prerequisites
Determine whether you are using a private network (recommended) or shared network (supported, but
not recommended). If you are provisioning systems on a shared network, you probably have a DHCP
server on the network. Disable the OS Provisioning Server's DHCP server and configure your regular
DHCP server to provide network boot information for machines to be provisioned. See "Configure a
DHCP Server Other Than the OS Provisioning Server" on the facing page.
