How to Modify the Configuration of the DHCP Service

  1. Assume an appropriate role.

    Assume a role that can grant the DHCP Management profile to users. If the DHCP Management profile has not been assigned to a user, assume the root role.

    Roles contain authorizations and privileged commands. For more information about roles, see Creating a Role in Securing Users and Processes in Oracle Solaris 11.2 . For more information about the DHCP Management profile, see How to Grant User Access to DHCP Commands.

  2. Edit the DHCP configuration file.

    For IPv4 edit the /etc/inet/dhcpd4.conf and for IPv6 edit /etc/inet/dhcpd6.conf. For more information, see the dhcpd.conf (5) man page.

  3. Restart the SMF data.
    # svcadm restart service
