<p>After applying the DHCP patch provided with OFED packages, I was able to assign dynamic IP addresses from a pool of IPs declared in dhcpd.conf.</p>
<p></p>
<p>1) Now, I am wondering whether it is possible to use DHCP to assign static ip addresses for IB interfaces.</p>
<p>If yes what should be the dhcp-client-identifier looks like in the host declaration?</p>
<p></p>
<p>I tried the port's GUID and GID as client-identifier, but it did not help, I am getting "no free leases" from the dhcp server.</p>
<p>I have attached the output from tcpdump on dhcp server.</p>
<p>2) Is there a way in which I can set on the client, the client identifier option with an identifier unique to the client?</p>
<p></p>
<p>Any help is greatly appreciated!</p>
