DHCP Server

Version 1.1 by Mark Kohlmann on 2021/09/24 15:54

ShowRunner version 3.009 or newer has an internal DHCP Server that can be enabled to assist with setup.  This eliminates the need to run a personal router to address devices on the local network.

Caveats/Notes:
  • The DHCP Server cannot be enabled on processors with routers (PROx/AVx/CPxN).
  • The DHCP Server cannot be enabled on VC-4 instances.
  • The internal DHCP Server is not designed to be used in production and can only be enabled manually.
  • The DHCP Server is never enabled at startup.
  • Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS Server are imported from the processor's own settings.
Configuring the DHCP Server from showrunner HUB:

This feature is coming soon.

Configuring DHCP Server from the Console:

Console Commands set the start address as the processor IP Address + 10.  The end address as the processor IP Address + 10 + 1/2 the size of the subnet.

Example for Processor IP Address of 10.0.0.10 and a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0 (/24):
Start Address: 10.0.0.20
End Address: 10.0.0.147

  • Enabling: sr dhcp server enable
  • Disabling: sr dhscp server disable
  • Viewing Addresses: sr dhcp server bindings
