NAME

       jdbreg - Registers hosts in the DHCP dynamic databases.

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/jdbreg [-d] [-e] [-f character] [-s] [-l  | -n] [-o] [-w] filename...

OPTIONS

       Deletes the records whose keys are implied by the input file(s).  Uses character as the field separator.  The default is the pipe | charac-
       ter.  Display all currently registered hosts.

DESCRIPTION

       The jdbreg program registers (or removes) hosts for configuration by DHCP.  When the registered_hosts_only policy is in effect, the  server
       configure only clients whose MAC addresses are so registered. When this policy is not in effect, registering hosts has no effect.

       Each  record  to  be loaded is terminated by a newline, and the fields within each record delimited by default with the pipe (|) character,
       although this may be changed with the -f command line option.

       The fields within the data file(s) to be loaded are as follows: MAC address MAC address type MAC address length (octets)

RESTRICTIONS

       Because the database used by join does not support multiuser concurrently, applications that write to it, lock the entire  database.   This
       means that you cannot use jdbreg while joind is running. The converse is also true.

NAME

       nets - JOIN DHCP server database

DESCRIPTION

       The  nets file is employed by joind, the JOIN DHCP server, to tell it which networks to administer and the ranges of IP addresses available
       for dynamic assignment on each of those networks.

   FORMAT
       Blank lines and lines beginning with the number sign (#) are ignored.  Entries are  separated  from  one  another  by  newline  characters.
       Entries	consist  of  three  fields: the network number (expressed as an IP address), the IP address or name of a host running joind, which
       dynamically configures clients on the network, and a range of available addresses for dynamic allocation to hosts on the net. The range	is
       expressed as a pair of IP addresses separated with a dash (-). There must be no whitespace separating the dash from the IP addresses.

       Several	servers  may  administer  a single network, and a single server may administer several networks. Each network-server pair may have
       several ranges of IP addresses available for dynamic allocation.  The network and server IP addresses do not have to be repeated  for  each
       entry.  A line containing a single field is assumed to be an IP range with the same server and network as the previous entry: a line of two
       fields is assumed to be a server address and IP range with the same network as the preceding entry.

       The ranges of addresses served by each cooperating server must be disjoint.  This condition is checked by the server on startup.
