CentOS 7 DHCP Machine Configurations

These two machines are simply used to provide IP Addresses to any machines not using static addresses on the network. In this case, there are only two - wks01 and wks02.

Network Configuration

dhcp 01 configuration

• Hostname: dhcp01-unlucky
• IP Address: 10.0.5.15
• Primary DNS Address: 10.0.5.5
• Alternate DNS Address: 10.0.5.6
• Domain: unlucky.local

dhcp 02 configuration

• Hostname: dhcp02-unlucky
• IP Address: 10.0.5.16
• Primary DNS Address: 10.0.5.5
• Alternate DNS Address: 10.0.5.6
• Domain: unlucky.local

DHCP Configuration

dhcp01 dhcpd.conf file

• Locate the dhpcd.conf - usually found in /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
• Replace it with dhcpd.conf

dhcp02 dhcpd.conf file

• Locate the dhpcd.conf - usually found in /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
• Replace it with dhcpd.conf
• Edit the new dhcpd.conf file and replace the first range with 10.0.5.101 and the second with 10.0.5.150.
• Note that all of these ranges are simply for verifying that both dhcp servers are functional. This configuration is not recommended for a practical setup.
