Files Used by the DHCP Service
The following table lists the files that are associated with DHCP.
Table 4 Files and Tables Used by DHCP Daemons and Commands
|
|
/etc/inet/dhcpd4.conf
/etc/inet/dhcpd6.conf
|
ISC DHCP only: Contains configuration information for
the ISC DHCP server, dhcpd. For more information,
see the
dhcpd.conf
(7)
man page.
|
/etc/dhcp/interface.dhc
/etc/dhcp/interface.dh6
|
Contains the configuration parameters that are obtained
from DHCP for the given network interface. For DHCPv4 the filename
ends with dhc. For DHCPv6, the filename ends with
dh6. The client caches the current
configuration information in
/etc/dhcp/interface.dhc
when the interface's IP address lease is dropped. For example, if
DHCP is used on the qe0 interface, the
dhcpagent caches the configuration
information in /etc/dhcp/qe0.dhc. The next time
DHCP starts on the interface, the client requests to use the cached
configuration if the lease has not expired. If the DHCP server
denies the request, the client begins the standard process for DHCP
lease negotiation.
|
/etc/default/dhcpagent
|
Sets parameter values for the
dhcpagent client daemon. See the
/etc/default/dhcpagent file or the
dhcpagent(1M) man page for information about the
parameters.

/var/db/isc-dhcp/dhcp4.leases
/var/db/isc-dhcp/dhcp4.leases~
/var/db/isc-dhcp/dhcp6.leases
/var/db/isc-dhcp/dhcp6.lease~

ISC DHCP only: Lists leases for DHCPv4 and
DHCPv6 servers. Files with "~" at end of the file name
are previous copies.
