Title:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DHCP-BASED AGREEMENT OF IP ADDRESSES TO SERVERS BASED ON GEOGRAPHIC IDENTIFIERS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2005/109223
Kind Code:
A2
Abstract:
A method of assigning IP addresses to a plurality of managed servers coupled is
provided. A set of address correlations is stored, at least temporarily, at a
management server coupled to the managed servers. Each address correlation
comprises a correlation between one of a plurality of geographic identifiers
and one of a plurality of IP addresses. Each geographic identifier identifies
a possible physical location of a managed server. A geographic identifier at
least partially identifying the physical location of the managed server is received
at the management server from a particular managed server. The IP address corresponding
to the received geographic identifier is determined from the set of address correlations
and assigned to the particular managed server.
