Okay, dhcp-relay is working fine for any pc device, just not for the mvp. > Oddly, I see nothing whatsoever in the tftp server logs (I have logging > turned up so I do see log entries for mvp's on the same lan) Reading some of the wiki and previous list postings seems to indicate that the mvp ignores the next-server declaration in the dhcp lease, is that correct. I got slightly confused in my reading about that as it seems that specifically applies to the H. series units rather than the older D3A's I have. > At this point the mvp starts cycling through contacting mvp bootserver and > contacting dhcp server over and over and I see no further dhcp traffic on > the router, dhcpserver or the tftp server. Further testing points to an mvp issue itself. Hooking my wife's XP workstation to the dmz port, allows it to get an address in the correct subnet from the dhcp server on the main subnet, So DHCP relay is working fine. The problem seems to be with tftp and the mvp specifically as I can see that the mvp is getting an ip address as I see the dhcpdiscover and dhcpoffer in the logs, but don't see a dhcpack. Testing on the main lan indicates the mvp doesn't do the dhcpack UNTIL it's fully finished loading the firmware via tftp. Hooked up my pda to the dmz subnet with a tftp client, I can successfully pull the firmware file across the subnets, so I know the tftp traffic can flow between subnets, so that's not the issue. Just tried adding the "option tftp-server-name text;" declaration, but that had no impact on the situation, mvp gets ip, tries to load firmware, but never actually contacts the tftp server as there is ZERO traffice in the tftp server logs. Note, I am using the isc dhcp server on CentOS 5.2. # rpm - qa | grep dhcp dhcpv6-client-1.0.10-4.el5_2.2 dhcp-3.0.5-13.el5 Suggestions? -- Harondel J.
