Special Instructions

For improved performance, configure the DNS/DHCP scope settings before you start using the Novell iManager browser-based DNS/DHCP management utility.

The recommended settings for the Novell iManager browser-based DNS/DHCP management utility are as follows:

Display Settings	Font Size	Browser Text Size
800 * 600	Small	Medium to Smallest
1024 * 768	Small	Largest to Smallest

While importing the DHCP configuration, if the subnet address range contains a reference to an external DHCP server, this reference is automatically replaced by a reference to the default DHCP server that you specify.

The Novell DNS and DHCP servers are based on ISC BIND Version 4.9.6 and ISC DHCP Version 2.
