Description Dirk Ahrnke 2014-10-17 16:29:11 CEST

The current DHCP-implementation does not allow to configure extended DHCP options like "client classing" to disable certain MAC-addresses. The workaround using local.conf has the drawback that subnets defined here are outside of the usual and preferred configuration methods in UCS.

This feature was requested in http://forum.univention.de/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=3524

I have no clue about DHCP. Would this be fixed by Bug #32557 ?

With dhcpStatements you can insert arbitrary "dhcpd.conf" statements into the configuration. As this is stored inside LDAP, you no longer would need to modify the "local.conf" file per server.
See <http://forum.univention.de/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=5952&p=22224#p22224> for an example.

Arbitrary DHCP options and statements are now supported and are stored in LDAP.
