Synopsis

DHCP is an authoritative overview and expert guide to the set up and management of a DHCP server. The book begins with a thorough technical introduction to DHCP--how it was developed, how it interacts with other protocols such as TCP/IP, etc. Part II discusses how DHCP operates; including initial configurations, handling rebooting and lease extension, and DHCP relay agents. In Part III, the authors share their expertise on the efficient use of DHCP in different environments. Part IV covers the technical intricacies of the interaction between DHCP servers and clients, and how to optimally manage each relationship. The final section covers network hardware, inter-server communication, security, SNMP, and IP mobility. The book concludes with several appendices that provide a rich resource for networking professionals working with DHCP.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Ralph Droms, Ph.D., is an educator, consultant, and author. He is the chair of the IETF Dynarnic Host Configuration (DHC) Working Group on automated configuration of networked computers and is an Associate Professor of Computer Science at Bucknell University. Ralph organized the DHC Working Group in 1989. He has chaired the working group since its inception and is a key contributor to the design and development of DHCP. Ralph is also editor of the DHCP RFCs and continues to participate in the evolution of DHCP. Previously, Ralphwas a member of the computer science faculty at Pennsylvania State University. He has also been on the research staff at IBM and Burroughs (Unisys). Since joining the Coniputer Science Department at Bucknell in 1987, Ralph has guided students through the study of TCP/IP internetworking, operating systems, and computer architecture. He also served as Co-Director of the computer center at Bucknell, where lie supervised the design and implementation of the campus-wide multi-protocol network. As a consultant in network architecture and infrastructure design, Ralph works with large and small companies on a variety of TCP/IP issues including network architecture, server strategies and configurations, and the use of DHCP, DNS, and other technologies in network management. Ted Lemon is the author of the Internet Software Consortium DHCP Distribution, a popular Open Source distribution that includes a DHCP server, DHCP client, and relay agent. He started programming in 1977, when he decided to make a few changes to the Star Trek game, and has been working in the computer industry since 1983. Ted first encountered the DHCP protocol while working as a network administrator at Digital Equipment Corporation in the early 1990s, and he has been active in the IETF DHC Working Group since 1996. He is convinced that, while answering questions on the ISC DHCP mailing lists, he has answered roughly half of the questions ever asked about DHCP, and he was motivated to work on this book in hopes of being able to help answer these questions more efficiently. He currently works for Internet Engines, Inc., developing the latest version of the ISC DHCP distribution.
