Configuring the DHCP server to support iSCSI boot

The DHCP server is an optional component that is only necessary for a dynamic iSCSI Boot configuration

setup. See "Dynamic iSCSI Boot Configuration (on page

server to support iSCSI boot is different for IPv4 and IPv6.
To configure the DHCP server to support iSCSI boot, do one of the following:

DHCP iSCSI boot configurations for IPv4 (on page
