19 ToolVox DHCP Server Configuration
Considerations
This DHCP configuration is basic and will only work on the same subnet the ToolVox is on.
Advanced configurations are possible, but advanced network administration is required.
This procedure will clear out existing ToolVox DHCP server configuration.
Do not start DHCP servers on networks that already have them. If done improperly, you may
have consequences on your ethernet network with devices requesting DHCP.
Prerequisites
You will need the following information:
• ToolVox IP address
• Network address (e.g. 172.1.100.0)
• Subnet mask (e.g. 255.255.255.0)
• Default router or gateway address (e.g. 172.1.100.1)
• DNS server addresses, if any
Procedure
1. Sign in to the ToolVox server’s Webmin interface, e.g. https://IPofToolVox:2000/
2. User Name = cbadmin; Password = codeblue
3. Navigate to Servers > DHCP Server.
4. Click the Configfile button.
5. Clear out the contents of the Edit window and replace it with the following, using the ToolVox
server’s IP address for the value of the tftp-server-name option (this is required for an
IP5000 to pull its configuration from UPD on boot):
ddns-update-style ad-hoc;
option tftp-server-name “ IPofToolVox ”;
6. Click Save.
7. If you wish to have DHCP configure DNS servers, click Edit Client Options.
a. DNS servers: click the radio button next to the text box, and enter the DNS
server address(es) separated by spaces, e.g. DNSIP1 DNSIP2
8. Click Save.
9. Under Subnets and Shared Networks, add a new subnet for the network the ToolVox server
will be serving DHCP for:
a. Subnet description: a free-form descriptive name for the subnet
b. Network address: the network address of the subnet, e.g. 172.1.100.0
c. Netmask: subnet mask for the subnet, e.g. 255.255.255.0
d. Address ranges: IP addresses the DHCP server has the authority to hand out
