remove now obsolete restriction  to netdevice, when addind systems to gosa

  
  Machine management basically allows you to manage all networked devices in your Debian Edu network. Every machine added to the LDAP directory using GOsa² has a hostname, an IP address, a MAC address and a domain name (which is usually "intern"). For a fuller description of the Debian Edu architecture see the [[../Architecture|architecture]] chapter of this manual.
  
- To add a machine, use the GOsa² main menu, systems, add. (Choose netdevice, not server as that will leave you with a system object that can't be erased with GOsa². You can use an IP address/hostname from the preconfigured address space 10.0.0.0/8. Currently there are only two predefined fixed addresses: 10.0.2.2 (tjener) and 10.0.0.1 (gateway). The addresses from 10.0.16.20 to 10.0.31.254 (roughly 10.0.16.0/20 or 4000 hosts) are reserved for DHCP and are assigned dynamically.

  To assign a host with the MAC address 52:54:00:12:34:10 a static IP address in GOsa² you have to enter the MAC address, the hostname and the IP; alternatively you might click the {{{Propose ip}}} button which will show the first free fixed address in 10.0.0.0/8, most probably something like 10.0.0.1 if you add the first machine this way. It may be better to first think about a suited range for your network.
