Ah, you see the nature of the problem. :-) > CMU's DHCP has SNMP built in. Is that how they talk? We've theorized that the SNMP interface could be used to synchronize databases between two DHCP servers, but haven't actually implemented anything to do that. Since 98% of our nodes are static assignments, we currently use two DHCP servers with only static assignments and only one DHCP server with dynamic assignments. But synchronization is something we'd love to do at some point the future, potentially using SNMP or whatever standard server-to-server protocol may be developed. --- Erikas
