DHCP Address Issue

Post by nagiostra »

Our DHCP addresses change frequently, Like every couple days. Is there any workaround so I wouldn't have to change them on Log Server every time it happens?

Hello nagiostra,

There are a few methods you could use to prevent this issue from continuing.
  • You can configure your IPs to be static
  • You can set up a local DNS server to configure domain names instead of IP addresses
  • You could write a script to automatically update the configurations whenever a DHCP lease renewal happens.
I would suggest setting static IPs as this would definitely be the easiest method.
