Hi,

I'm considering installing dhcp3 relay on my linux boxes.

I already have dhcp3 server running.

Wouldn't those packages conflict ?

I mean:
Is it a correct behavior to run dhcp3 relay as a fallback if the dhcp3
server is unavailable (misconfigured, crashed...)?

Thanks

Laurent

Hello Laurent,

I wouldn't advise installing dhcp3 relay with dhcp3 server. If you are
concerned about a dhcp server being unavailable, install a backup
server. The clients would get addresses from either. (Make sure they
are not giving out conflicting addresses.)
