Converting dhcptags Entries to inittab Entries

If you previously added entries to your dhcptags file, you must add corresponding entries to the new inittab file. The following example shows how a sample dhcptags entry might be expressed in inittab format.

Suppose you had added the following dhcptags entry for fax machines connected to the network:

128 FaxMchn - IP Fax_Machine

The code 128 means that it must be in the site category, the option name is FaxMchn, the data type is IP.

The corresponding inittab entry might be:

FaxMchn SITE, 128, IP, 1, 1, sdmi

The granularity of 1 and maximum of 1 indicate that one IP address is expected for this option.
