|
||||
domain: mynetwork.local
|
||||
dns:
|
||||
- 8.8.8.8
|
||||
- 8.8.4.4
|
||||
default_lease: 86400
|
||||
max_lease: 172800
|
||||
networks:
|
||||
- subnet: 192.168.1.0
|
||||
netmask: 255.255.255.0
|
||||
range_start: 192.168.1.100
|
||||
range_end: 192.168.1.200
|
||||
broadcast: 192.168.1.255
|
||||
gateway: 192.168.1.1
|
||||
interface: eth0
|
||||
hosts:

|
||||
|
||||
Your network domain name, e.g., `mynetwork.local` or `home.local`
|
||||
|
||||
### Option: `dns` (required)
|
||||
|
||||
The DNS servers your DHCP server gives to your clients. This option can
|
||||
contain a list of servers. By default, it is configured to have Google's
|
||||
public DNS servers: `"8.8.8.8", "8.8.4.4".
|
||||
|
||||
### Option: `default_lease` (required)
|
||||
|
||||
The default time in seconds that the IP is leased to your client.
|
||||
Defaults to `86400`, which is one day.
|
||||
|
||||
### Option: `max_lease` (required)
|
||||
|
||||
The max time in seconds that the IP is leased to your client.
|
||||
Defaults to `172800`, which is two days.
|
||||
|
||||
### Option: `networks` (one item required)
|
||||
|
||||
This option defines settings for one or multiple networks for the DHCP server
|
||||
to hand out IP addresses for.
|
||||
|
||||
At least one network definition in your configuration is required for the
|
||||
DHCP server to work.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Option: `networks.subnet`
|
||||
|
||||
Your network schema/subnet. For example, if your IP addresses are `192.168.1.x`
|
||||
the subnet becomes `192.168.1.0`.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Option: `networks.netmask`

||||
Your network netmask. For example, if your IP addresses are `192.168.1.x` the
|
||||
netmask becomes `255.255.255.0`.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Option: `networks.range_start`
|
||||
|
||||
Defines the start IP address for the DHCP server to lease IPs for.
|
||||
Use this together with the `range_end` option to define the range of IP
|
||||
addresses the DHCP server operates in.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Option: `networks.range_end`
|
||||
|
||||
Defines the end IP address for the DHCP server to lease IPs for.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Option: `networks.broadcast`
|
||||
|
||||
The broadcast address specific to the lease range. For example, if your
|
||||
IP addresses are `192.168.1.x`, the broadcast address is usually `192.168.1.255`.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Option: `networks.gateway`

||||
|
||||
Sets the gateway address for that the DHCP server hands out to its clients.
|
||||
This is usually the IP address of your router.

||||
#### Option: `networks.interface`
|
||||
|
||||
The network interface to listen to for this network, e.g., `eth0`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Option: `hosts` (optional)
|
