DHCP monitor for Windows Server?
We had a DHCP pool that was nearing capacity and noticed that LM didn't alarm?
Please can we request some DHCP pool monitoring capabilities for Windows Server?
Forum Discussion
If anyone is wondering what the DHCP scope monitor should do - here is some a suggestions.
- Use a Datasouce to identify that a Windows server is running DHCP
- Retrieve the scopes that exist
- Retrieve the number of IP addresses in the scope range ass well as the number of unassigned IP addresses
- Create a threshold for an alarm if # unassigned IP addresses is below a specified value or the % of devices that are unassigned drops below a specified %.
- Graph scope #, assigned #, unassigned #
Or something like that.
