Checklist: Installing a MADCAP server
Step | Reference |
---|---|
Review Multicast Address Dynamic Client Allocation Protocol (MADCAP) concepts such as IP multicasting and multicast address allocation. |
|
Determine the multicast IP address range or ranges for use in your MADCAP server configuration. The ranges you select depend on whether you need to use administrative local scoping or global scoping practices to provide multicast address allocation service on your network. |
|
Manually configure TCP/IP properties for the DHCP (MADCAP) server computer. |
|
To install a MADCAP server, install the DHCP service. Important
|
|
Open the DHCP console. |
|
Authorize the DHCP (MADCAP) server in Active Directory. |
|
(Optional) If the DHCP (MADCAP) server is multihomed, you can disable service bindings for any connection not to be used to listen and provide service to DHCP (MADCAP) clients. |
Selectively set DHCP server bindings for network connections; Multihomed DHCP servers |
Create a multicast scope. |
|
If necessary, you can additionally manage multicast IP address allocation by creating and removing scopes, or by modifying multicast scope properties, such as scope TTL and lifetime settings as needed. |
|
(Optional) For additional fault tolerance, you can implement DHCP clustering support using a server cluster. Note
