Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) service enables host systems to receive IP addresses and network configuration information at boot time from a network server. The Solaris DHCP service has been enhanced in several ways to enable it to support larger numbers of clients:
In addition, the Solaris DHCP server now supports dynamic DNS updates. You can enable the DHCP service to update the DNS service with the host names of DHCP clients that request a specific host name. The Solaris DHCP client can now be configured to request a specific host name. For more information, see the Solaris DHCP Administration Guide. |
