Hi all, I came across an oddity the other day that might ring bells for someone here. I'm having trouble with the dhcp server, and in particular getting static bindings (fixed assignment of IP addresses for particular client MACs) to work. This is not an Afilias exercise, so don't read too much into the from address I'm using.
Router is a J2320 running 8.5R3.4. Config looks like the snippet below. What happens when the client with MAC 00:50:56:01:01:64 requests a lease is that a dynamic binding from the dynamic pool is formed, and the client is not given the A.B.C.164 address. I've tried the config below with and without the address-range phrase in the pool stanza, and the result is the same. When I was testing last night, I saw the following kind of output recorded on the router (not pasted; this is constructed from memory): [EMAIL PROTECTED]> show system services dhcp binding IP address Hardware address Type Lease expires at A.B.C.164 00:50:56:01:01:64 static never A.B.C.166 00:50:56:01:01:64 dynamic <timestamp> [EMAIL PROTECTED]> which seemed very odd. What use is a static binding if the server will happily make up a dynamic binding for the same MAC? I find the documentation for the JUNOS DHCP server to be quite vague. Does anybody else have a working DHCP config, ideally on 8.5, that includes static bindings and works? Joe system { dhcp { maximum-lease-time 7200; default-lease-time 3600; name-server { A.B.C.135; A.B.C.141; } traceoptions { file jdhcpd.log size 10m files 10; } pool A.B.C.160/29 { address-range low A.B.C.164 high A.B.C.166; router { A.B.C.161; } } static-binding 00:50:56:01:01:64 { fixed-address { A.B.C.164; } } } } } interfaces { ge-0/0/3 { vlan-tagging; unit 100 { vlan-id 100; family inet { address A.B.C.162/29 { vrrp-group 100 { virtual-address A.B.C.161; } } } } } } _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
