The DHCP server reads two files on startup: a configuration
file, and a lease database. If the -t flag is specified,
the server will simply test the configuration file for
correct syntax, but will not attempt to perform any network
operations. This can be used to test the a new configura-
tion file automatically before installing it.
The -T flag can be used to test the lease database file in a
similar way.
Dhcpd can be made to use an alternate configuration file
with the -cf flag, or an alternate lease file with the -lf
flag. Because of the importance of using the same lease
database at all times when running dhcpd in production,
these options should be used only for testing lease files or
database files in a non-production environment.
We just created a dhcpd.test script that runs the above command, and make it
a policy to ALWAYS run dhcpd.test before restarting DHCP after a change.
