<br />
Now i have a few questions regarding identify by classes:<br />
<br />
When a computer is plugged in, it gets a id adres from the 2003 server, after that it get's a IP from windows 2003. How does windows 2003 recongnises that computer? On what points is the ID adressed to that computer (mac, packet level etc etc)<br />
<br />
Can i plugin linux of mac computers and also get an ID by the windows 2003 dhcp server ?

Windows 2003 DHCP classed ID

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
