DHCP Server

The DHCP server manages network connections between the AI components and the clients. The DHCP server informs the AI server of the location of the CGI file to support WAN Boot clients.

To set up the DHCP server on the same system as the AI server, see Setting the AI Server to Manage DHCP.

Unlike an x86 client, a SPARC client can be configured to locate the AI server without DHCP. For alternative ways to perform AI without DHCP, see Starting Automatic Installation on Clients.
