Network Installation Management Guide and Reference


Interacting with the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol

You should select your NIM master to be the same system as the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server when using NIM in an environment that uses DHCP. You should also use host names whenever possible when defining NIM machine objects.

Refer to DHCP and Network Installation Management (NIM) Interactions and Suggestions in AIX 5L Version 5.1 System Management Guide: Communications and Networks for more information.
