I am replacing a 3com lanmodem with a 2620. The lanmodem currently operates
as a dchp server, providing
services to windows 9x/NT clients.
I have set up a 2620 as a dhcp server, but can't seem to get the server to
assign an address
to the client, except if I choose the 'renew' option in windows' WINIPCFG
utility.
Does anyone know whether this is because :
a) the router is not 'seeing' the initial dhcprequest packet?
b) MS Windows clients require a 'bootfile' on the dhcp server ?
Any help or redirection to an appropriate source would be helpful.
I have checked the cisco site, but can only find info on how to set up the
server,
not troubleshoot it.
