Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Doubt on fixed ip address assinged by dhcp server? Post 302407906 by druidmatrix on Saturday 27th of March 2010 12:25:18 AM

Unless it is a workstation, it is very unusual to have fixed IP's be served by DHCP. Doesnt that create an additional point of failure for you - in case the DHCP server crashes and the machine with the fixed IP is being rebooted? In any case, you should be able to see the lease parameters in your dhcpd log.
