The application of DHCP in the campus network environment
which is based on Linux system
Abstract ： DHCP technology is a practical technology to manage IP address
allocation which is based on C/S mode. In the real application in the campus, we often
meet IP address is less than the number of computer case, due to the development of
the portable computers and wireless network, the IP address of the fixed already can
not meet the needs of users, and manual configuration when the IP address
configuration error easily, cause the host can't normal communication. As a result,
have cited the DHCP technology, solve the series of problems.
The article is based on Linux system to explore the DHCP technology in the
application of the campus network environment. Usually, use static configuration in
small network IP address can meet the requirements, and involved in such a large
network of campus network IP address planning and distribution, distribution of the
static IP address can not reach the requirements. The DHCP technology is put forward
by the client to the server configuration application, the server returns the IP address
and the corresponding configuration information to complete the distribution function
of the IP address. This paper discusses the Linux-based system use DHCP technology
to realize the reasonable distribution of the IP address, and citd the DHCP relay agent
to solve the problem of campus network transmission across subnet.
