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 (on page 572).
In the following illustrations, it is assumed that the BCM2 serial number
is PEG1A00003, and the IP address you want to reserve is 192.168.20.1.
Illustration with ASCII code conversion:
1. Convert the client identifier of the desired network interface into
ASCII codes (
hexadecimal ).
