Fedora Networking :: DHCP Server Intitial Setup - FC 13

Jun 5, 2010

I decided to forgo my router's DHCP capabilites and try to make a random computer at my home take on the job.

First of all here's my network topology:

I have a cable modem hooked up to eth0 on my linux box, and this is where my internet comes from and works fine.

I also have another ethernet, eth1, which is connected to a wireless router in bridge mode. My end goal is to have my linux box sit between my internal network and the outside world. Thus it will need to act as a DHCP server, a NAT and as a firewall. Right now I'm just focused on the DHCP part.

Here is a copy of my dhcpd.conf file:

My /etc/sysconfig/dhcpd file has:

However the issue is that it is still listening on eth0. and not issuing any leases on my internal network.

What I think is happening is that it's not recognizing the 10.0.1.x subnet because my router is issuing leases on the 169.254.193.x, even though I put it on bridge mode. But I could be totally off mark.

Also running tcpdump on eth1, I can see requests coming in for dhcp, but my server isn't responding to them.

Fedora Networking :: Setup DHCP Server Via Virtual Interface?

Mar 10, 2009

is it possible to setup a DHCP server using the loopback or a virtual interface? I installed Sun VirtualBox on my fedora system and want to try and kickstart them from within the same box on a virtual network. Is this possible and has anyone done it? I only have a single NIC in the box and it is on my public network.

Ubuntu Networking :: DHCP Server No Longer Responses To DHCP Requests - Can't Ping Gateway

Oct 22, 2010

Back in April I set up a Ubuntu DHCP server and a multiple VLAN network [URL] to migrate our various servers, workstations, etc off the 192.168.1.1 /24 network that everything was on because we where running out of address space. I built out the new network and everything worked great except our AD server would never get an IP address from the DHCP server (static reservation) and even if I set the IP statically on the AD server it couldn't ping the gateway and noone could log in. After several attempts to resolve this, including bringing in outside help, we where never able to figure out what the problem was.

Now 6 months later I have time to revisit the issue without effecting the live network. I used Acronis and imaged the AD server last Friday, cloned it on to another box with the same hardware, and put it up on the new network that's been sitting unused for the last 6 months. Today when I statically set the IP on the AD server (which is what I want) it connects and I can ping it's gateway 192.168.1.1 and all the way across vlans to a test sales agent workstation at 192.168.8.xxx on vlan 800 but only if I statically assign the agents station an IP address. When I try to get an IP address via DHCP it fails as destination unreachable. Nothing has changed in the last 6 months on the DHCP server but now it for some reason can't ping its default gateway 192.168.1.1. All of the config files are the same as they where left from the post linked above aside from the vlan id's used where changed from 1's to 100's (i.e. vlan 3 is now vlan 300) /etc/network/interfaces

Code:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto vlan100
iface vlan100 inet static

[code]....

why it can't reach the gateway, when I do a tcpdump I can see the DHCP requests come in on eth0 but the server never responds and I'm pretty sure its because it isn't "seeing" them since it thinks there isn't a network connection but I don't know how to trouble shoot to find out where the problem lies.

Networking :: Configure A (openSUSE) Client To Dhcp To EBox DHCP Server - Lease An IP Address

Mar 25, 2010

I am puzzled with trying to configure a linux (openSUSE) client to dhcp to eBox DHCP server. I am using dhclient to lease an IP address with dhclient eth0 -s 10.45.48.108 and get a response

openSUSE11232CL1 dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 10.45.48.108 port 67 interval 4
openSUSE11232CL1 dhclient: DHCPOFFER from 10.45.48.108
openSUSE11232CL1 dhclient: DHCPREQUEST on eth0 to 10.45.48.108 port 67
openSUSE11232CL1 dhclient: send_packet: Network is unreachable
openSUSE11232CL1 dhclient: send_packet: please consult README file regarding broadcast address.

The server reports eBox141 dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:0c:29:3e:57:a3 (openSUSE11232CL1.domain.net) via eth0
eBox141 dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 10.45.200.2 to 00:0c:29:3e:57:a3 (openSUSE11232CL1.domain.net) via eth0

I interpret this as the server receives the request and the client accepting it but the lease does not last long and the connection breaks. what this could be and why the connection breaks? Or my undestanding is totally wrong on how it works and should work? And BTW, where is that README file that's referenced in the message I receive on the client?

Networking :: DHCP Setup For Development Board Connection On Fedora10?

Mar 16, 2011

I'm still fairly new to Linux so please forgive me if my description of my problem leaves out important information. My problem is centered around using a AT91SAM9G45 development board (DB)on Fedora 10. I have directions on how to setup on my host machine a DHCP server to connect to the development board. I have installed an additional network card (eth1) that will be used exclusively to communicate with my DB.

The DB has been setup with an ethaddr=12:34:56:78:9a:bc and an ipaddr=192.168.251.191.

The following is info from ifconfig for eth1:
eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0A:5E:1A:46:1C
inet addr:192.168.251.190 Bcast:192.168.251.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

Ubuntu Servers :: DHCP Server And DHCP Client Simultaneously?

Aug 4, 2010

I have an embedded device for which I've created an html configuration page. This page allows you to set static IPs, dhcp, and can scan for wireless devices.My problem is that in order to access the device it requires that it runs as a dhcp server otherwise people are not assigned an IP and so can not access the embedded devices static IP. (This config page is for the laymen and so they are not the type who are able to set up their own static IPs). One of the potential options is to have the device connect to the network on eth0 acting as a dhcp client. However this prevents me from running a dhcp server.One solution I can think of is running a dhcp server only if it doesn't detect another dhcp server running on the network.

Ubuntu Networking :: Can't Use Static Ip On Dhcp Server

I set eth1 to use static IP in interfaces, but every time I reset the network, it is fine for a couple of minutes, and switches over do being served by my own dhcp server on the same machine.

Ubuntu Networking :: Public IP Vs Private IP For DHCP Server?

Feb 12, 2011

My Ubuntu server is now providing routing duties to my network, but I'm having trouble opening ports to my network. I have a DynDNS account, so the IP is always current, but I can't ping even my IP directly.

My network map looks like

Internet > SpeedTouch DSL modem with DHCP > eth1 > Ubuntu > eth0 > LAN

With the modem providing a 192.168.1.xx IP to eth1, I can browse fine. The default gateway is my modem. I switched to the public IP of the modem so I could use iptables for firewall duties, but I was locked out of the internet. No gateway was set when I did that, but eth1 received the public IP of my modem.

How can I use the public IP assigned to eth1?

Networking :: Dhcp Server With Two Subnets?

Mar 17, 2010

I'm trying to build a linux(fedora 12) dhcpd server(and gateway), that have 3 network cards(eth0 have with public ip, eth1 192.168.2.1 class and eth3 with 192.168.3.1 class).

Because I have just a switch, I want to put both cables(from eth1, eth2) in the switch. Every client has 2 network card(eth0, eth1). My question is, is there any way to conf eth0 to take from server ip from 192.168.2.1 class, and eth1 from 192.168.3.1? The internet will work only on eth0.

my dhcpd.conf for now looks like this:

subnet 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option routers 192.168.2.1;

Ubuntu Networking :: Different DHCP Behavior In Server Versus Desktop

Jan 20, 2010

I've noticed something strange in the behavior of how Ubuntu server obtains it's IP address versus Ubuntu desktop and other versions of linux and Windows. When Ubuntu desktop obtains an IP address from my router that address is retained from one bootup to the next, same behavior as Windows, SuSE, and pretty much any other OS. Ubuntu server on the other hand grabs a different IP address everytime it boots. At first I guessed it was a difference in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf so I replaced it with the dhclient.conf from Ubuntu desktop but no dice, it still grabs a new address every time.

In /etc/network/interfaces Ubuntu server defines the loopback interface and primary network interface, just as it should but Ubuntu desktop does not define the network interface, only the loopback interface. I'm guessing something else controls does this. Desktop appears to be storing previous IP lease information in /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.eth0.leases but server doesn't, /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.leases is always empty and there's no other files in /var/lib/dhcp3/.

Apparently something isn't writing old lease info there. Without setting a static IP address, how can Ubuntu server be configured to retain the same IP address between boots like Ubuntu desktop?I'm using Ubuntu server 8.04LTS, Ubuntu desktop 9.10 & 9.04, SuSE 11.0, Linux Mint, Windows XP, pfSense 1.2.2 as router.
