alhthough i didnt read the code of dhcp server...usually when a dhcp client request enters one of the physical nic that has an ip address bind to it.. that nic's ip address is the bases to compare its dhcp configuration file in the subnet declaration....
with regards to your problem... you have a single nic which binds two different network logically... the primary ip address binds to your nic is the bases to compare to your subnet declaration... let say your primary ip address is in the 192.168.0.0/24 network and your secondary ip address is in the 172.16.0.0/24 network... inside your 192.168.0.0/24 subnet declaration.. you have to map the mac address of the pc inside the 172.16.0.0/24 network to whatever ip address you want to assign in the 172.16.0.0/24 range...i didnt try it but it will more likely to work but in a tedious task... to make your life simple.. just acquire another network card.... network card is cheap nowadays.... and you separate the broadcast domain of your two networks versus to one nic... fooler. ----- Original Message ----- From: croilan cruz To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, April 17, 2007 11:25 AM Subject: [plug] Re: help dhcp Greetings, is it possible to configure dhcp from linux box with multiple network eg. first network 192.168.0.0/24 second network 172.16.0.0/24 with only one nic card. many thanks.... froilan,
