tools: nmap
Nmap is a very useful tool for various tasks including getting a list of all the IP addresses that are on your subnet. For example, in order to find all IPs on subnet 192.168.1.xxx, one can do: nmap 192.168.1.*

To connect to a node on it's own:First configure yourself as a known adddress e.g. 192.0.0.1
Also include the netmask
ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0
dnsmasq allows you to act as a dhcp server
dnsmasq -F 192.168.1.2,192.168.1.5 -d (this is the range of the addresses that the dhcp server will give out) (-d is debug mode)
Now I am a dhcp server and reboot the other node and listen to see what address was given to him.
