Have anyone tried DNS server instead of Array to achieve redundancy?<br><br>Let's say we've 2 x TFTP server for redundancy purpose.<br>TFTP1 - <a href="http://1.1.1.1">1.1.1.1</a><br>TFTP2- <a href="http://1.1.1.2">1.1.1.2</a><br>
<br>normally TFTP redundancy is achieved by creating Array in DHCP. Put both TFTP server ip address in the DHCP.<br>array: <a href="http://10.1.1.1">10.1.1.1</a> <a href="http://10.1.1.2">10.1.1.2</a><br><br>Instead of putting those IP address in the array in DHCP config can I put one DNS like name?<br>
<br>Array: tftp1tftp2 or <a href="http://tftp.cisco.com">tftp.cisco.com</a><br>In DNS - <a href="http://tftp.cisco.com">tftp.cisco.com</a> has 2 hosts associated to it e.g. <a href="http://10.1.1.1">10.1.1.1</a> and 10.1.1.2-- <br>
<br>The DHCP RFC tells that ICMP is the one which finds out TFTPS erver's subnet but no mention about DNS address for option 150.<br><br><br>Smile, you'll save someone else's day!<br>Frog<br>
