Hello,
that is because packetfence cannot find the ip the system has in the
recent dhcp events. I had the impression, one might want to confirm,
that some dhcp renew request (when a client wants his old ip) does not
update the day when the address is issued within the database correctly.
If i am not totally wrong , i have seen the dhcp service or whatever is
responsible for that to update the time but not the day, when a client
wishes for its old ip.
Solution for my dualboot Windows System (maybe thats the only reason
this problem exists, dualboot?) was to ipconfig /release , then the dhcp
request was a normal one, for a new ip, and packetfence dhcpd could
recognize the issued ip and show the mac.

Hello,
Where should I be looking if suddenly I am not getting a MAC address
to the portal? This device was showing the MAC correctly and now on
the portal it shows '0'
