− | == Installation ==
| |
− | | |
− | You can install DHCP either during or after the original installation of Windows Server or Advanced Server. However, there must be a functioning DNS server configured in the environment. This allows active DNS forwarding via DHCP.
| |
− | | |
− | To check the DNS server, click '''Start''', then click '''Run''', enter cmd, press the <ENTER> key, enter ping [name displayed for the DNS server in your environment] and then press the <ENTER> key. If the query is unsuccessful,
| |
− | the message "Unknown host [DNS server name]" will be displayed.
| |
− | | |
− | To install the DHCP service on an existing Windows Server, proceed as follows:
| |
− | | |
− | 1. In the Windows Start menu, select '''Start''' > '''Settings''' > '''Control Panel'''.
| |
− | | |
− | 2. Double-click '''Add/Remove Programs''' and then select the option ''''Add/Remove Windows Components'''.
| |
− | | |
− | 3. In the '''Windows Component Wizard''', click '''Networking Services''' under '''Components''' and then click '''Details'''.
| |
− | | |
− | 4. Activate the '''DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)''' check box if it is not already activated, and then click '''OK'''.
| |
− | | |
− | 5. In the '''Windows Component Wizard''', click '''Next''' to start the Windows setup program.
| |
− | | |
− | 6. Insert the Windows Advanced Server CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive when you are prompted to do so. The setup program copies the data for the DHCP server and the DHCP tool on to your computer.
| |
− | | |
− | 7. When setup is complete, click '''Finish'''.
