DHCP server
Configure DHCP server on RHEL7
yum install dhcp
Config file /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf should looks like this:
# # DHCP Server Configuration file. # see /usr/share/doc/dhcp*/dhcpd.conf.example # see dhcpd.conf(5) man page # subnet 192.168.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { option domain-name "clontest.com jlab.org"; option domain-name-servers 192.168.10.1; option routers 192.168.10.1; use-host-decl-names true; pool { range 192.168.10.2 192.168.10.20; deny dynamic bootp clients; allow unknown clients; } } set vendorclass = option vendor-class-identifier; option pxe-system-type code 93 = unsigned integer 16; set pxetype = option pxe-system-type; # DISKLESS Clients in here group { if substring(vendorclass, 0, 9)="PXEClient" { if pxetype=00:06 or pxetype=00:07 { filename "efi/boot/grub2/x86_64-efi/core.efi"; } else { filename "linux-install/pxelinux.0"; } } next-server 192.168.10.1; host test5 { hardware ethernet 00:20:38:10:14:f7; fixed-address 192.168.10.5; } host test6 { hardware ethernet 00:20:38:0A:07:D7; fixed-address 192.168.10.6; } host test7 { hardware ethernet 00:20:38:0F:2C:0D; fixed-address 192.168.10.7; } } # Diskless clients group
Enable and start service:
systemctl enable dhcpd systemctl start dhcpd
