You can assign a static IP via DHCP to a machine based on it's MAC<br>address. If you are using ISC dhcp something like:<br>host hostname {<br>hardware ethernet aa.bb.cc.dd.ee.ff;<br>fixed-address <a href="http://192.168.1.90" target="_blank">
192.168.1.90</a>;<br>}<br></blockquote></div><br>And if for some reason you don't want to use the MAC address you can use this approach with some dhcp servers<br>(at least isc-dhcp):<br><br> host <a href="http://machineA.example.org">
machineA.example.org</a> {<br> option dhcp-client-identifier "<a href="http://machineA.example.org">machineA.example.org</a>";<br> fixed-address <a href="http://10.2.1.6">10.2.1.6</a>;<br> }<br><br>
And then you put <br>send dhcp-client-identifier "<a href="http://machineA.example.org">machineA.example.org</a>";<br>in your dhclient.conf file on machineA.<br>-- <br>Regards,<br>Torfinn Ingolfsen<br>
