[Dnsmasq-discuss] dnsmasq responding to DHCPINFORM only

[Nabeel Jafferali]

I got a little further, updated dnsmasq to 2.52 and specified
dhcprange=192.168.10.0,proxy. I realize the documentation says this works
with pxe-service, but I was hoping it would also work with dhcp-option - but
it does not. With log-dhcp set, I see items in the syslog that correspond to
the client device's DHCPINFORM requests, but dnsmasq does not seem to
respond.

 

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Subject: dnsmasq responding to DHCPINFORM only

 

Is it possible to have dnsmasq run alongside an existing DHCP server on the
network, but only respond to DHCP INFORM requests with the appropriate
option #. Essentially, I want to have my existing DHCP server hand out IPs,
but when the client device doesn't receive option 66 information, it send a
DHCP INFORM request, which I want dnsmasq to reply to.


I tried to set up dnsmasq.conf to listen on the appropriate interface, did
not set it as authoritative, did not include any IP address range, but did
specify dhcp-mac and dhcp-option entries.

 

Thank you.
