What actually makes this work?
Right, I'm running my own DHCP server on my LAN, but if you're not running a DHCP server, you should be able to set the IP address manually in the Network System Preferences.
It's not as complicated as you think...
I don't think you actually need to do any configuration on the DHCP server at all. I've been using the same setup (moving from lan to wireless without dropping connections) for a while now. The secret is to set your DHCP Client ID to the same on both interfaces. As an aside, if you set it to the same as in your Sharing control panel and make it a single word with just letters and numbers (no spaces), the DHCP server will record your client name and correctly configure dyndns (if you have it setup).
It's not as complicated as you think...
It depends on the situation. I tend to prefer making changes on my DHCP server so I don't have to mess around with each client machine's settings :-)
It's not as complicated as you think...
Well, I prefer to change my iBook setup, rather than all the DHCP servers I come in contact with in a normal work day :) |
