Lab 06: DHCP

In this lab we will setup a DHCP server and use it from the Windows 10 Client.

1. Setup a DHCP server
   1. Setup the DHCP server on CPTE230a include the tools.
   2. Install the DHCP Server tools "feature" on CPTE230w windows 10 machine (Remember we will do most of our administration from CPTE230c)
2. Using the DHCP manager on CPTE230a setup a scope called 192.168.1.0/24
   1. The range of addresses should go from 192.168.1.100 - 192.168.1.254
   2. Length = 24
   3. Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0
   4. Click next accepting defaults until you get to the "Configure DHCP Options" - Yes
   5. Router = 192.168.1.1
   6. Make sure DNS is set to 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.3
   7. Skip WINS server configuration
   8. Answer Yes, I want to activate this scope now.
   9. Create a reservation for your windows 10 machine and set it to always get 192.168.1.10
   10. Finish.

3. Turn off the DHCP Service in OpnSense.

   1. Expand Services, DHCPv4, [LAN]
   2. Uncheck "Enable DHCP server on the LAN interface", then go to the bottom and save.
      1. (optionally copied the reserved MAC address)
4. Back in the DHCP server create a reservation for your cptr230w machine (windows 10)
   1. Right click on Reservations and select New Rservation

   2. Fill in a reservation name, IP Address = 192.168.1.10, MAC address that you copied from the other reservation on OpnSense, Click add.

   3. Switch to your cptr230w machine
   4. From a command prompt type: ipconfig /release
   5. From a command prompt type: ipconfig /renew
   6. verify that your DHCP server is now 192.168.1.2 instead of 192.168.1.1.

Configure your Windows 10 Client to use DHCP (if it is not already)

1. Verify that you can surf the internet from this machine.
2. Verify that you can manage the DHCP server from your windows 10 machine (login as administrator).
