Which DHCP for jumpstart server ?

2007-12-25 6:51:00

Hi there

I am setting up a jumpstart server to distribute flash archives (x86 and
SPARC, Solaris 8 & 10)

The jumpstart server itself will be running on a solaris 10 box...my question
is this

As I will be using DHCP for SPARC and x86/PXE builds, I wanted to know which
DHCP server software to use...looking through previous mails on this subject
some people have suggested installing "ISC DHCP server" and not using the
version included with Solaris 10 . Does anybody know the benefits of using
this 3rd party product ....or will I gain the same results with the bundled
one?

As a note, I will be scripting the addition of each new box to be added and
NOT using the graphical utility to manually enter them....So extra GUI
functionality and ease of use are not an issue to me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
