Foreman » Smart Proxy

Hi,

I know there have been several similar requests in the past but what is actually the current status. On our setup Katello 3.18 / Foreman 2.3.5 we see that the exclusions and the scopes of our MS DHCP server are not honored. We noticed it this morning since a few hosts manged by Katello were assigned IP reservations that are actually excluded or not included in the general scope on the MS DHCP Server. We know that we can adjust the start / stop range in Katello but there doesn't seem to be a way to add the exclusions and to be honest, even if it would make more sense that the scope settings from the DHCP server are honored. This makes sense especially since some times there is a separate team that administers the MS DHCP Server and this team is not aware of another service like Katello not honoring their systems settings and policies. And sorry if this has already been fixed in a newer release like Katello 4.x, but if that is the case it would be good to know as we are still planning to do the upgrade.

Best Regards,
Oliver
