Reserving IP in Linux
There are two methods to reserve the IP address of any network interface in the standard Linux DHCP server (ISC DHCP
server):
•
Convert an interface's client identifier into
hexadecimal
ASCII codes.
•
Use an interface's original client identifier without converting it into ASCII codes.
For each interface's client identifier, see
Reserving IP Addresses in DHCP Servers
In the following examples, it is assumed that the PDU serial number is PEG1A00003, and the IP address you want to
reserve is 192.168.20.1.
Example with ASCII code conversion:
1.
Convert the client identifier of the desired network interface into ASCII codes (
hexadecimal
).
