Configuring the DHCP/TFTP Server
The HaneWin DHCP/TFTP server works based on profiles. For every lease there is
a profile assigned. For a basic network only two profiles are needed: a master
profile and a slave profile. The parameters that are defined in a profile are:
쎲
Netmask
쎲
Gateway
쎲
TFTP server IP
쎲
Autoconfiguration file name
쎲
DHCP extensions
Upon reception of the DHCP reply, the dLAN 200 DSpro adapter will download
the autoconfiguration file specified in the reply, from the given IP address.
The first thing you need is a basic set of autoconfiguration files. You can use the
examples provided in Section 8 as a baseline. Create a new directory and put
those two files in there.
You must then specify this directory in the DHCP application under Options >
Preferences. Then go to the "TFTP" lid and set "TFTP Root Directory" to the direc-
tory where the configuration files are, as shown in Figure 9.
The next step is creating a profile. To create the master profile follow the steps
below:
쐃
Go to Options > Manage Profiles.
쐇
Type the name of the profile (e.g. "Master") in the lower window and click
"Add". A new window will appear (see Figure 10).
쐋
In the lid "Basic Profile", set a subnet mask that is compatible with your
computer settings. As gateway, set the static IP of your computer or leave it
blank.
쐏
In the lid "Boot", type the IP of your computer under "Next Server IP
Address" and "Name". Then check the case "Always use option 66/67 for
Name and File".
쐄
In the lid "Other", select option 18 and type the name of the master's con-
figuration file in the value field (e.g. "master.conf"). Then click "Add" to add
this option.
쐂
In the same lid, add option 120 with binary value "0 0 0 0", as described in
Section 7.
