Change sdX,Y to whatever your setup requires, e. If it doesn't already exist, create it using the following template:. Change rootpartitionlabel to the label of your root partition. If you do not know, use the blkid command to find out. The Rescue entry after menuentry is some descriptive text; this can be anything you like. Omit it for a normal or upgrade installation.
The first command will load the installation kernel and initrd into memory, and the second will start the new kernel. Moments after issuing the kexec -e command, you will see the boot messages of the new installation kernel as it initializes.
The wikis are now using the new authentication system. Jump to: navigation , search. This article covers the methods and procedures for installing openSUSE over the network. The actual ip-address ranges to lease. Okay, almost there. The next and final page asks about starting the service, this of course, will normally be selected to start on booting.
Cool, we are finished and you can test from a client. You may also want to check the output of netstat to show that the server is listening on port 67, the DHCP port. Here we can see that the server is listening on all interfaces 0. We can see then that the DHCP Server is running now, to check that it is configured for auto-start the output of : chkconfig —l dhcpd should confirm that the service should start in the text mode runlevel 3 and the GUI Mode runlevel 5.

Completing this initial setup produces a very basic server configuration that should function in its essential aspects. The expert mode can be used to deal with more advanced configuration tasks.
Proceed as follows:. See Figure To manually open the DHCP port, run. In the text boxes, provide the network specifics for all clients the DHCP server should manage. These specifics are the domain name, address of a time server, addresses of the primary and secondary name server, addresses of a print and a WINS server for a mixed network with both Windows and Linux clients , gateway address, and lease time.
Configure how dynamic IP addresses should be assigned to clients. All these addresses must be covered by the same netmask. Also specify the lease time during which a client may keep its IP address without needing to request an extension of the lease. Optionally, specify the maximum lease time—the period during which the server reserves an IP address for a particular client. Define how the DHCP server should be started.
Specify whether to start the DHCP server automatically when the system is booted or manually when needed for example, for testing purposes.
Click Finish to complete the configuration of the server. Instead of using dynamic DHCP in the way described in the preceding steps, you can also configure the server to assign addresses in quasi-static fashion. Use the text boxes provided in the lower part to specify a list of the clients to manage in this way. Modify the list of clients, which is shown in the upper part with Add , Edit , and Delete from List.
In addition to the configuration method discussed earlier, there is also an expert configuration mode that allows you to change the DHCP server setup in every detail. An important feature of the behavior of the DHCP server is its ability to run in a chroot environment, or chroot jail, to secure the server host.
If the DHCP server should ever be compromised by an outside attack, the attacker will still be in the chroot jail, which prevents them from accessing the rest of the system.
The lower part of the dialog displays a tree view with the declarations that have already been defined. Modify these with Add , Delete , and Edit. Selecting Advanced takes you to additional expert dialogs. After selecting Add , define the type of declaration to add. If you use the NetworkManager on the client side, you do not need to configure the client. This is useful if you have changing environments and only one interface active at a time. One way to configure a DHCP server is to identify each client using the hardware address of its network card which should be fixed in most cases , then supply that client with identical settings each time it connects to the server.
DHCP can also be configured to assign addresses to each relevant client dynamically from an address pool set up for this purpose. In the latter case, the DHCP server tries to assign the same address to the client each time it receives a request, even over extended periods.
This works only if the network does not have more clients than addresses. DHCP makes life easier for system administrators. Any changes, even bigger ones, related to addresses and the network configuration in general can be implemented centrally by editing the server's configuration file. This is much more convenient than reconfiguring numerous workstations. It is also much easier to integrate machines, particularly new machines, into the network, because they can be given an IP address from the pool.
Retrieving the appropriate network settings from a DHCP server is especially useful in case of laptops regularly used in different networks. In this chapter, the DHCP server will run in the same subnet as the workstations, It has the fixed IP address A DHCP server supplies not only the IP address and the netmask, but also the host name, domain name, gateway, and name server addresses for the client to use.
In addition to that, DHCP allows several other parameters to be configured in a centralized way, for example, a time server from which clients may poll the current time or even a print server. Confirm the installation of the dependent packages to finish the installation process. The module can run in wizard mode or expert configuration mode. When the module is started for the first time, a wizard starts, prompting you to make a few basic decisions concerning server administration.
Completing this initial setup produces a very basic server configuration that should function in its essential aspects. The expert mode can be used to deal with more advanced configuration tasks. Proceed as follows:. After this, select Open Firewall for Selected Interfaces to open the firewall for this interface, and click Next. See Figure In the text boxes, provide the network specifics for all clients the DHCP server should manage.
