Hi Wei and Ozhan, Thanks for your reply.
The problem doesn't affect only Debian-based guest VMs, but also affected some Windows and Ubuntu-based VMs as well. I have executed the command on the VR and reset the NIC of the guest VM, but unfortunately the issue still persists. iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -p udp -m udp --dport 68 -j CHECKSUM --checksum-fill After issuing the above command on VR and reset the NIC on guest vm (ifdown eth0, ifup eth0): On VR's /var/log/dnsmasq.log: Nov 7 19:09:22 dnsmasq-dhcp[18986]: DHCPDISCOVER(eth0) 06:b1:22:01:13:17 ignored Nov 7 19:09:25 dnsmasq-dhcp[18986]: DHCPDISCOVER(eth0) 06:b1:22:01:13:17 ignored Nov 7 19:09:30 dnsmasq-dhcp[18986]: DHCPDISCOVER(eth0) 06:b1:22:01:13:17 ignored Nov 7 19:09:36 dnsmasq-dhcp[18986]: DHCPDISCOVER(eth0) 06:b1:22:01:13:17 ignored On the guest VM: root@vm:~# ifup eth0 Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Client 4.2.2 Copyright 2004-2011 Internet Systems Consortium.

No working leases in persistent database - sleeping. I also tried to execute similar hotfix as mentioned on the bug report: iptables -A POSTROUTING -t mangle -p udp --dport bootpc -j CHECKSUM --checksum-fill The problem still persists. Any further advice on this is highly appreciated. Looking forward to your reply, thank you. Cheers.
