Produce Line:  VERDE

The following is the documentation on adding wpad.pac file to Verde DHCPD or Proxy Gateway:

 

                   Steps to Modify the DHCPD Process for Including wpad.pac file

 

#]  cat dhcpd.conf.template

ddns-update-style ad-hoc;

option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;

option wpad code 252 = text;

option wpad "\n\000";

default-lease-time 300;

max-lease-time 300;

authoritative;

 

subnet SUBNET.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {

        range SUBNET.1 SUBNET.200;

        option broadcast-address SUBNET.255;

        option routers SUBNET.254;

}

 

 how to find the internal NAT DHCP settings?

DHCP settings file is placed here: /usr/lib/verde/etc/samples/dhcpd.conf.template

NOTE:  The .template file dynamically creates the dhcpd.conf file during Server start-up

MUST MAKE FINAL CHANGES IN:  /usr/lib/verde/etc/samples/dhcpd.conf.template file

 

NEED TO LOAD CHANGES TO 'DHCPD' AFTER EDITING THE TEMPLATE FILE

ps -e | grep dhcpd  (Displays the process # of 'dhcpd' service)

kill -9  (Kills the process - ex.  kill -9 2816)

kill -9 2816

ps -e | grep dhcpd  (Redisplays the dhcpd process #)

 

NOTE:  May have to 'Restart' Verde server

After 'Restarting' DHCPD server, can display the 'active' DHCPD settings from ..template  file

===>    cat /var/run/verde/dhcpd.conf
