MAAS with an external DHCP server

[migmeneses]

Hi All,

I am trying to use an external DHCP server for our new upcoming MAAS environment. However, when I select the relay option, there is no VLAN available.

What is the procedure for using an external DHCP server?
Does anyone have the correct instructions?

Regards

Also, I cannot PXE boot, no media found

If you use an external DHCP server there is nothing that MAAS can do to enable your setup to use DHCP relay. It’s on you to configure your network devices to point to your external DHCP server

and then, what is the best way to Configuring External DHCP in MAAS
