Host - Paradyne 6212 User Manual

The amount of time the DHCP lease of the IP address will last. This is specified in days. The
default is 7 days.
-broadcast <broadcast-address>
The IP broadcast address that the server will listen to for DHCP requests. By default a standard
broadcast address for the subnet is used.
-dns <name-server>
The IP address of the DNS server that should be passed to DHCP clients. By default the dns
address configured on the WAN interface from the Internet Service Provider (via DHCP server
or PPPoA/PPPoE) is used.
-server <server> -file <filename>
These options are used to support Bootp clients. The client will go to the specified server to
retrieve the specified file as the boot image. The 6680 based endpoint does not support storage of
a file for a remote client to boot from. So the server specified will be another machine on the
network.
EXAMPLE
subnet add -o -subnet 192.168.5.0 -startip 192.168.5.200 -endip 192.168.5.210 \-leasetime
3 -dns 192.168.5.7
IP addresses will be assigned to up to 11 DHCP clients. The IP addresses assigned will begin
with 192.168.5.200 and end with 192.168.5.210. The length of the IP address assignment (the
lease) is 3 days. The address of the DNS server (192.168.5.7) will also be sent to the DHCP
clients.
subnet delete -o -subnet 192.168.5.0
The DHCP server will no longer serve address for the 192.168.5.0 network.

host list
These commands control the configuration of specific hosts and are useful when specific
machines need to have permanent IP addresses assigned to specific machines. The host
commands have precedence over subnet commands. The add option is used to specify the IP
address for a particular host. The list option shows the configured hosts. The delete option will
remove a host configuration. These commands are available in the dhcpserver directory.
