Chapter 14
Configuring the DHCP Service (Tasks)
When you configure the DHCP service on your network, you configure and start
the first DHCP server. Other DHCP servers can be added later and
can access the same data from a shared location if the data store
supports shared data. This chapter describes tasks that enable you to configure the
DHCP server and place networks and their associated IP addresses under DHCP management.
This chapter also explains how to unconfigure a DHCP server.
Each task includes a procedure to help you perform the task in
DHCP Manager and a procedure for the equivalent task with the dhcpconfig utility. This
chapter contains the following information:
If you experience problems configuring the DHCP service, see Chapter 17, Troubleshooting DHCP (Reference).
After you configure the DHCP service, see Chapter 15, Administering DHCP (Tasks) for information about managing
the DHCP service.
