[c-nsp] Weird DHCP like service required - anyone?

Skeeve,

I am not sure I fully understand what you are after, but I would suggest
you look at the following possible solutions (which might or might not
be what you need :-) ):

Hi guys,

	I am trying to accomplish something which I am not sure is
possible.

	I have a network with some 40 Cisco 1811's in it.  I want to run
DHCP, but I want to run it centrally.

	Each 1811 might be serving 100-500 clients. so a /24 or /23 will
most likely do (with possible for expansion).

	While this will be DHCP assigned, it will be from static
assignments based on each persons MAC address.

	So, thousand of users, going into their respective 1811, the
1811 ip dhcp helper forwarding the request to a Linux box.

	Then the Linux box should see the MAC and give back the
appropriate IP.

	It would be nice if any unknown MAC's could be given a
walled-garden kind of IP.

	Does this sound odd? Or is it something where there is a
solution for.  Can I use a Linux DHCP server which will work with the
1811's?
