The frame comes from the bridge, because that's the device which is actually connected to the switch or AP, and it has to be that way so the server knows where to send the response. The DHCP spec has a way of dealing with that (the server should use the MAC from a field inside the message, not where the message appears to be coming from) but I've seen servers get confused by that and do it wrong. Google "dhcp wireless bridge" and you'll see a bunch of posts about it with various routers. -- radish ------------------------------------------------------------------------ radish's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=77 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=55425 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
