We operate a very large intranet using DHCP servers. For both high reliability and low response time the servers are configured as primary-secondary pairs. As the size of our intranet has grown, the difficulty of managing the servers has also increased. We currently operate a command and control process, separate from the servers themselves, that runs on the same platform with a particular set of access controls. While we could expand the capabilities and range of access controls to accommodate different groups of operators, managers, support personnel, and administrators, we wonder if our DHCP servers could be monitored and controlled via SNMP. Several months ago I recall seeing a single mention of a purported MIB for DHCP servers. If my memory is correct, could the author of that note update me on the current state of the work? If I am imagining all of this, are there other people who are interested in defining a command and control repertoire for DHCP servers? --Barr Hibbs Pacific Bell San Francisco, CA (415) 545-1576 rbhibbs@pacbell.com
