I'm trying to configure my dhcpd server to provide different boot
options to systems based on vendor options and MAC addresses. I would
like most systems with a specific vendor-class-identifier to be given
one tftp server, but another system with the same
vendor-class-identifier and the MAC address 00:02:03:ab:cd:ef should
be given a different tftp server. The relevant parts of the config
file are listed below:
class "engineering" {
match if (option vendor-class-identifier="SimpleAsciiString");
option root-path "server:/var/net/boot";
filename "tftpboot.simple";
}
subclass "engineering" 1:00:02:03:ab:cd:ef {
option root-path "anotherserver:/var/net/boot";
filename "tftpboot.complex";
}
Assuming that the root-paths and filenames are correct, will these
statements do what I'm trying to accomplish? If not, can you
recommend a different method?
Thanks,
Mike
