one dhcp server to support one local location and two remote locations

[rahmatz]

Hi..

I need to know, can one linux redhat 8.0 dhcp server support IP addresses with different subnets for one local location and two remote locations? Because I want to replace my Windows dhcp server with linux server. But i can't find information about how to setup linux dhcp server like i want to. Two of remote locations are connecting with routers. The routers will act as dhcp relay.

Thanks,
Rachmat Z

Rachmat,
This should be fairly easy. All you need to do is add multiple

subnet

sections to dhcpd.conf. Take a look at the following article:

It is based on FreeBSD, but the dhcp server is identicle for all intents and purposes.

Hope this helps you out.
