Is it link cycling on that NIC? What type of NIC is it? There are certain NICs that get weird and start link cycling with MAC spoofing (possibly plus DHCP client). If that's the case it's not that it's not accepting the lease, it is, but then loses link and regains it, which triggers another DHCP request as part of the linkup process, which cycles link again, rinse and repeat. _______________________________________________ pfSense mailing list https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list Support the project with Gold! https://pfsense.org/gold
