<div dir="ltr">Greetings dhcp-users,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I've recently taken over a pair of ISC DHCP 4.2.5 servers,
and I'd like to know how you test your environment -- both for
troubleshooting and also for validating config changes. To
make things concrete, let me briefly explain our setup and
then what I'd like to be able to do.<br>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We have about 70 subnets defined, with failover peers on
most of them between our two servers. Our network (cisco)
vlan config has ip helper-addresses which point to both
servers. Mostly we do interim-style ddns, although there
are some static host entries. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Usually everything works fine, until it doesn't, and
every few months we add a new subnet for a lab or
something. To troubleshoot, or double-check changes, I'd
like to be able to simulate a lease request from a client.
Right now what I do is a) run dhcpd -t against the changes,
and then b) stand up a vm on the new subnet and see what
happens. It would be much nicer to simply say "pretend you
get a request from this MAC on this subnet, and show me what
you'd do."</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I've tried dhcping, and it seems to require me to run it
from a server already on the subnet in question -- not quite
what I want, but maybe I just don't understand it well. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks for any advice you can provide,<br clear="all">
