To act as a server DHCP in Windows 7

Hello

is it possible to make it act as a DHCP (IP addresses supplier) to a local network in Windows 7? If so, is it still possible even if Internet connection sharing is enabled (and therefore Windows 7 configure static IP addresses)?

Thank you.

To the best of my knowledge, the only way to make it act as a DHCP (without 3rd party software) of Windows 7 is to enable Internet connection sharing.  ICS assigns a static IP address to connect to the local network of the host computer and the DHCP server assigns dynamic IP addresses to other computers on the LAN.

  • Only windows server DHCP 2012 does not accept windows 7 Starter ip addresses?

    I want to connect to my PC for wifi, administrators have installed windows server 2012 for the administration of wifi network, they claim that it will not get connected to wifi because I have windows 7 starter edition

    Your question is absurd that there is no distinction between an address IP of Windows 7 Starter.  The DHCP server, they can be configured in different ways, but at its core (no change) he will present IPs to any device that requires correctly and a system functioning and correctly configured Windows 7 Starter would not have a malformed request especially when talking to a Windows Server.

    So as I said before, they do not want you BYOD.  * fault *.

    Windows 7 Starter system in good condition is more than able to get an IP address from any properly configured and nice DHCP server.  I assume that the server is properly configured, just not nice or the workstation is not healthy.

    In other words, you're them, misquoting their incomprehension or they tell you the easiest thing without just said, 'No' or there's something else wrong with your system and that they have no desire to fix it for you, or they should not run such things.

    The simple fact is that Windows 7 Starter is not innate difficulty communicating with a server DHCP R2 open and properly configured windows server 2012 or 2012 in order to get an IP address for itself; now (the server might would be) well assured in several ways but and the Windows 7 Starter system could have all sorts of questions...

  • WLC - server DHCP (Override) and

    Hi guys,.

    A little confused. If I want my wireless clients to a DHCP address on my business DHCP servers, I need to click the Overrides button, for the WLC to act as a relay agent or the docs say that this happens by default?

    Can someone pls confirm, because it is a little confusing. The files help mentioned below also?

    Thx a lot indeed.

    Server DHCP (Override)

    ----------------------

    When the substitution is selected, you can enter the IP address of your DHCP server. It is a required field for some configurations of WLAN. There are three valid configurations:

    -DHCP Server override on a valid DHCP and DHCP address assignment requested server IP address: requires that all WLAN clients obtain an IP address from the DHCP server.

    -DHCP Server override on a valid DHCP and DHCP address unnecessary assignment server IP address: allows all clients WLAN get an IP address from the DHCP server or use a static IP address.

    -DHCP Server OFF Overrides: guests WLAN using the DHCP setting in the Management Interface, not the static address of the Forces.

    Hi Ken,

    Your WLC default is DHCP relay, you do not need to override.

    The WLAN configuration, put you in an interface. If you check this configuration of the interface, you will see that it points to a DHCP server. This is where your WLC relays to wireless clients.

    If you wish to override this setting and to send your customers to a different DHCP server instead, you then click DHCP replace in the WIFI config and enter another IP DHCP address.

  • Adding an ESX3i server to a windows domain

    Hello

    I have a server with ESX3i installed and working properly. My question is this: is it possible to add the ESX3i server to a windows domain?

    I would like to be able to access the server to ESX3i by its name rather than its IP address, especially since I need to use the DHCP protocol within our corporate network.

    Kind regards

    Hello and welcome to the forums.

    Sounds like what you really want is the name resolution with the DNS servers of your Windows domain.

    If your DHCP server is configured dynamically updated DNS, then you should be fine.  Another option would be to set up a reservation in DHCP for your ESX host and then add an entry in DNS for him.

    Good luck!

  • Windows Server 2008, or Windows XP Pro

    I have a used PC only for old games (Zoo Tycoon, Sims2, Rollercoaster Tycoon etc..) I wiped the system and start from scratch: there is no internet connection on this computer and I only have the options of running Windows Server 2008, or Windows XP Professional. Which operating system would you recommend playing on this kind of games?

    Thank you!

    As requested just burst in to offer my opinion.  I think XP would be the best of those choices, simply because it was more oriented and consumers more likely to run these programs (possibly in compatibility mode). Although really for some, it might be the case that you need for Windows 95/98 to play, so ultimately it may require virtual box or something similar to get those running.

  • What is the web server integrated for Windows XP Professional?

    Hello

    I would like to know what the web server integrated for Windows XP Professional.

    I don't know of a free web server like Apache or IIS.

    I want to host my site on the net using the web server integrated in XP (not IIS).

    Thanks in advance.

    It is not just any server web, other than IIS, integrated with Windows XP Professional.

    You think perhaps of Personal Web Server (PWS) which was part of the old operating systems like Windows NT.  Which no longer exists in Windows XP Professional - it has been replaced by IIS.
