[Devil-Linux-discuss] Slightly OT: DHCPD and 802.1q trunk

[Frank W. <Fra...@ct...>]

Hi all,

I wonder if it is possible to have a trunked port, let's say vlan10 and vlan20 
on the same NIC, and have dhcpd distribute different address pools to clients 
in the vlans? The vlan-tag is certainly stripped off the packet before it is 
passed to dhcpd, so dhcpd has no way of knowing which vlan the request came 
from.

I know there is some possibility to configure the clients to include some 
label in the request, and differenciate them using that on the server, but 
that would mean reconfigureing all the clients....


Thanks for any ideas,

Frank
