Hi
Im running FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE on my gateway and for the last week or
so it cant renew its dhcp-lease.
At boot-time it sends a request to broadcast: DHCPREQUEST on fxp0 to
255.255.255.255 port 67
And then it gets an DHCPACK from the gateway. (not 172.21.248.127)
But then the machine tries to renew the lease I keep getting messages
like this:
Feb 23 18:29:06 cone dhclient[1623]: DHCPREQUEST on fxp0 to
172.21.248.127 port 67
Feb 23 18:29:06 cone dhclient[1623]: SENDING DIRECT
Feb 23 18:29:33 cone dhclient[1623]: DHCPREQUEST on fxp0 to
172.21.248.127 port 67
Feb 23 18:29:33 cone dhclient[1623]: SENDING DIRECT
until the lease runs out and then the connection drops.
I guess 172.21.248.127 is the real dhcp-server.
A 'dhclient fxp0' sends a new request to 255.255.255.255 and it
immediately fixes the connection.
