How to Start DHCP Manager

  1. (Optional) Become superuser on the DHCP server machine.

  2. If you are logged in to the DHCP server machine remotely, you can display DHCP Manager on your local machine as follows.

    1. Type the following on the local machine:


      # xhost +server-name
      
    2. Type the following on the remote DHCP server machine:


      # DISPLAY=local-hostname;export DISPLAY
      
  3. Type the following command:


    # /usr/sadm/admin/bin/dhcpmgr &
    

    The DHCP Manager window opens, displaying the Addresses tab if the server is configured as a DHCP server, or no tabs if the server is configured as a BOOTP relay agent.
