Hello,
We're looking to use DHCP to assign static IP addresses to several hundred
PCs running FTP Software's PC/TCP. The PC/TCP DHCP client allows you to
specify a Client ID string as opposed to a hardware Mac address when
uniquely identifying machines. Does the Internet Software Consortium DHCP
server support this assigning of addresses based on Client IDs, or does
it only support assigning addresses based on Ethernet addresses?
Thanks,
-Keith
