<H1>About DHCP Manager</H1>

DHCP Manager provides an integrated Java-based graphical 
interface for Solaris<FONT SIZE="-1"><sup>TM</sup></FONT> DHCP management functions that can also be performed from the Solaris 
command line. DHCP Manager provides functions that are analogous to those available from:<p>

	<ul>

	<li><tt>dhcpconfig</tt> -- DHCP service 
	configuration utility</li>
	<li><tt>dhtadm</tt> -- DHCP configuration table 
	management utility</li>
	<li><tt>pntadm</tt> -- DHCP network table 
	management utility</li>
	<li><tt>in.dhcpd</tt> -- DHCP server and BOOTP relay 
	daemon</li>

	</ul>

<p>You can use DHCP Manager in place of, or in combination with, all command-line-based Solaris DHCP functions.<p>

DHCP Manager provides several benefits, compared with its command-line counterparts:<p>

	<ul>

	<li>A convenient, integrated &quot;point-and-click&quot; interface for the Solaris 
	DHCP server's most sophisticated functions.<p></li>

	<li>A graphical view of the relationships between <tt>dhcptab</tt> macros and options, making it easier for 
	you to determine where to place option values for the most efficient 
	client configurations.<p></li>

	<li>DHCP management wizards that guide you through tasks such as
	configuring the DHCP server, configuring networks, and adding addresses.<p></li>

	</ul>

Of course, the command-line utilities are still useful for creating shell scripts for batch-processing administrative tasks.<P>
