You can optionally configure a site for DHCP relay.
- If setting up a site for auto discovery or DHCP relay, the site devices must first be configured to use DHCP. Otherwise, they cannot be autodiscovered or participate in DHCP relay.
- Worker nodes at the sites must be joined to the Global Controller.
Bare Metal Orchestrator deploys a DHCP server in Relay mode. The Bare Metal Orchestrator DHCP server does not allocate IP addresses. It functions as a relay agent and becomes a proxy, forwarding requests and replies between a DHCP server and other devices at the site.
- From DHCP Settings, click Edit.
- Select None from the Auto Discovery drop-down list.
- Select Relay from the Deploy Mode drop-down list.
- In the Interfaces field, enter a comma-separated list of all interfaces that are part of the DHCP relay process (configured in relay mode).
- In the Forward IP Address field, enter the address of the DHCP server where messages should be forwarded.
- Click Save to complete DHCP relay setup.
