Here is a question about DHCP configuration.
My server on a box there are network cards. I want the server assigned
IP addresses (IP, Gateway, DNS) to the client accroding a option
field, let say "client tag" but not according to the inertafec it
receives the rquest.
Is that possible, can give a example?

Keep asking

You can fix information based on the macid of the client, but at
that point, isn't faster to dump the DHCP at all and go for static
IPs?

Like Davide says, you can bind this information to a specific requesting
interface by using the MAC address.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish?
