Major Project Presentation ON DHCP Server Configuration: Tit College Bhopal

This document presents a major project on configuring a DHCP server. It discusses the objectives of providing background on host configuration protocols, defining DHCP, and discussing DHCP operation on the same or different networks. It also covers how DHCP uses UDP ports, the states clients go through to lease an IP address, and configuring a DHCP server which requires packages, daemons, configuration files and writing a script.

TIT COLLEGE BHOPAL

MAJOR PROJECT PRESENTATION ON DHCP SERVER CONFIGURATION


GUIDED BY: PROF DINESH RATAN GAUTAM

PRESENTED BY: BHAGWANT SINGH KUSHAWAH ANURAG NARENDRA PRATAP SINGH

OBJECTIVES:
To give a historical background of two protocols used for host configuration in the past. To define DHCP as the current Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. To discuss DHCP operation when the client and server are on the same network or on different networks.

To show how DHCP uses two well-known ports of UDP to achieve configuration.
To discuss the states the clients go through to lease an IP address from a DHCP server.

INTRODUCTION
Each computer that uses the TCP/IP protocol suite needs to know its IP address. If the computer uses classless addressing or is a member of a subnet, it also needs to know its subnet mask. Most computers today need two other pieces of information: the address of a default router to be able to communicate with other networks and the address of a name server to be able to use names instead of addresses as we will see in the next chapter. In other words, four pieces of information are normally needed.

DHCP OPERATION
The DHCP client and server can either be on the same network or on different networks. Let us discuss each situation separately.

Client and server on the same network

Client and server on two different networks

CONFIGURATION
The DHCP has been devised to provide static and dynamic address allocation. REQUIRED PACKAGES
1. dhcp-3.0.5-21.el5 2. dhcleint-3.0.5-21.el5

DEAMON
dhcpd

PORT NO547-SERVER 546-CLIENT

CONFIGURATION FILE
/etc/dhcpd.conf

LEASE FILE
/var/lib/dhcpd/dhcpd.leases TO CONFIGURE DHCP WE NEED TO WRITE SOME SCRIPT IN FILE THAT IS vi /etc/dhcpd.conf
