PART 1: PREREQUISITES

  • In order to do this lab and the ones to follow you need to make sure that you've completed assignment 1 successfully, which in turn requires that you've completed labs 1 through 4.
  • Your c7host should have at least 8GB of RAM allocated to it. Your four nested VMs should be reconfigured to use no more than 1GB of memory (1024MB). That way when we create more nested VMs we won't run out of memory.
  • If you've completed the labs correctly, this is what the iptables configuration should look like on your c7host (except the "35" which will be different for all of you):
    [root@c7host ~]# iptables -L -v

  • The asg1 network must be an isolated network, with access to the network1 network and the internet via lin1a1 which is configured as a router.

PART 2: DHCP

So far we've used either DHCP provided by the virtualisation systems (Vmware/KVM) or static IP addresses. In this lab we'll set up a DHCP server on the asg1 network.

There are many websites that describe the operation of DHCP, here is a good one. You're not expected to understand the details of the contents of every packet, but you should understand the overall process of requesting and assigning an IP address in a DHCP environment.

  • Install the DHCP server on lin2a1. The package is named dhcp.
  • It doesn't come with a working configuration file. You'll need to put in your own configuration into /etc/dhcpd.conf. You can start with something like this (note that your subnet will be different from this one):
 Dhcpd.conf.png
  • You should understand what all these parameters mean. In the screenshot the DHCP server will assign IP addresses in the range 192.168.35.100 - 192.168.35.200, and each client will receive the appropriate default gateway and DHS server.
  • To test this you'll need a DHCP client on the asg1 network.
  • Start the DHCP service (named dhcpd) and once it starts without errors - configure it to start automatically on boot.

DHCP Clients

  • Create two new nested VMs on the asg1 network. Same minimal installation, but leave their network interfaces configured as DHCP clients.
  • The first one should have the hostname alice and the second one should be named charlie. lin2a1 will serve as bob, when we get to that.
  • Boot up alice (or bring eth0 down and back up) and confirm that it's been configured as expected based on your DHCP server's configuration.
  • You should be able to use the internet on the new machine without any extra configuration, which is the whole point of DHCP.

Lab completion

  • Make sure you understand what you've done in this lab, so that you're ready to answer questions about it.
  • Have notes in your labbook from this lab.
  • Show your work to the professor and have them sign your labbook.
