Zusammenfassung: | The present invention proposes a method, system and network element which allows securing, customizing and generally improving network equipment (device) configuration and DHCP network address identification, assignment and distribution mechanism, such that network address and parameter configuration, assignment and distribution in a communications network is performed in a more optimum and secure manner. The present invention improves the DHCP protocol using policies based on roles (profiles) directly linked to the physical identification of the device (for example, to its MAC address). |
