Run a wide search on DHCP for IP address
Description
I had a scenario were i had to search for IP related to a MAC i already had but i didn't have the network.
There for I've ran a for loop query each network with my mac address.
The search took around 10 minutes.
My environment: Smart Proxy on windows server 2008
My request:
1. give an option to query IP address with given MAC and without network.
example: http://dhcp.server:8443/dhcp/*/00:e0:81:59:c8:e3
there for having an internal loop (inside proxy) will make it less complicated,
and much faster
2. having an internal DHCP caching: a DHCP server use to give the same IP to the same MAC
every time. there for caching the DHCP and then query from caching will make it much faster.
about the caching validation: much faster will be to qury a specific network because we saved it in caching.
