dhcpd

Due to the safety issues I have to configure a VLAN to set the "nameless" (undiscoverable) client hosts in it and deny (via IPFW) any access to the servers, except ports 143 and 587 on the mail server. How it can be set up most effectively? Server runs FreeBSD-13.1, has dhcpd, BIND 9.16...

Observable behaviour Client WiFi devices cannot obtain their IP addresses when connecting to a FreeBSD-13.0 server acting as an access point (hostap). Client devices run Win8.1 and various Androids, but the exact client software seems irrelevant to the problem. Suspected technical reason Local...

I've installed isc-dhcp44-server and client and have read the manual pages for dhcpd.leases. The instructions say to look in man page of dhcpd.leases if you don't know what to do, which is that when dhcpd is invoked it cannot find var/db/dhcpd.leases. In the man page it says to create "touch...

I would like to interactively look at the leases from my DHCP server just for auditing purposes. There is a post here: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/how-to-get-a-list-of-connected-clients-from-my-dhcp-server.33240/ However, it doesn't appear to be answered or answer my question. I see...

I am looking to more centrally manage the IP assignments on my home network by using ISC's dhcpd to hand out fixed addresses. That way, I can still reliably run local DNS for the internal network and manage IP assignment by linking a MAC to a specific IP. However, I want to do this for both...

I set up the system to function as a router using isc-dhcpd, pf, and was going to use unbound to send encrypted dns requests to Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1, but I can't even get it to work without that yet. As it is, when I access a website from my pc connected to the router, the websites don't...

Hallo, I want to make a PXE BSD Install. The DHCP Server is running and is being recognized. But I get a Timeout for TFTP. My Config files: https://nopaste.xyz/?043867399f299a2e#n7iFVMqajs/D2CBIxkIX1Lbkoa46uEMdjA9QmAKWHyo= I tried with Windows Programm "Serva Community" and it worked. It...

This how-to assumes that you are a somewhat experienced FreeBSD user, and understand how to use dd carefully to avoid data loss. It also assumes that you are able to restore your system to a working configuration if anything goes wrong. There is a Synopsis/Condensed Version below for the...

I've been poring over the dhcpd.conf man page, trying to figure out what is the correct way to give a client a fixed address when it connects to one or more subnet(s), and ignore any lease requests if it's on any other subnet. Based on what I've read, I think this is the correct configuration...

I've set up a new system for firewall duties and have found a small issue that I can't figure out. In my dhcpd.conf I have specified lease times: default-lease-time 72000; max-lease-time 144000; I have also specified fixed IPs for most things on my LAN, with directives like: # Brother color...
