So, I put the netif_notify_peers() into a scheduled work, otherwise GARP packet will not be sent after quick migration, and cause network disconnection. Thanks to Mike Surcouf <mike at surcouf.co.uk> for reporting the bug and testing the patch. This

Hi all, A friend of mine gives me a copy of Centos5 DVD. I then make an iso of it using dd if=/dev/cdrom of=centos5.iso command. I then check it using sha1sum.

Can we then have 2 DHCP server in the same subnet, only serving pre-determine clients
