Configuring an Address Allocation Server (AAS)

Administering the Address Allocation Server

The address server requires minimal administration. Once you have set up the address pools and established the server parameters, the server automatically allocates addresses when requested to do so by other network services such as DHCP. You may, however, wish to find out which addresses in a certain pool are in use or for how long a particular address is leased or what address was allocated to a particular client. This type of information is available using the AAS query feature.

Administrative tasks include releasing addresses from leases, disabling addresses from being subsequently re-allocated, re-enabling addresses which were previously disabled, and reconfiguring the server. See ``Releasing, disabling, and re-enabling addresses'' and ``Configuring the address server'' for more information.
