  34 <p>In the recent Debian Edu versions, the
  35 <a href="http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/HowTo/SiteSummary">sitesummary
  36 system</a> is used to keep track of the machines in the school
  37 network.  Each machine will automatically report its status to the
  38 central server after boot and once per night.  The network setup is
  39 also reported, and using this information it is possible to get the
  40 MAC address of all network interfaces in the machines.  This is useful
  41 to update the DHCP configuration.</p>
  42
  43 <p>To give some idea how to use sitesummary, here is a one-liner to
  44 ist all MAC addresses of all machines reporting to sitesummary.  Run
  45 this on the collector host:</p>
  46
  47 <blockquote><pre>
  48 perl -MSiteSummary -e 'for_all_hosts(sub { print join(" ", get_macaddresses(shift)), "\n"; });'
  49 </pre></blockquote>
  50
  51 <p>This will list all MAC addresses assosiated with all machine, one
  52 line per machine and with space between the MAC addresses.</p>
  53
  54 <p>To allow system administrators easier job at adding static DHCP
  55 addresses for hosts, it would be possible to extend this to fetch
  56 machine information from sitesummary and update the DHCP and DNS
  57 tables in LDAP using this information.  Such tool is unfortunately not
  58 written yet.</p>
