Yesterday afternoon the core router on our network decided to have a short nap and stopped routing packets for an hour or so. Layer 2 connectivity was not affected.
As the DHCP server is on a different VLAN to most of my SL servers, a few of them were unable to renew their DHCP leases. I expected the servers to sort themselves out once the router started passing traffic again, but every server that had a lease expire required manual intervention. In each case, it seemed like SL had just stopped looking for leases. Is this a bug that I've encountered, or is there a setting somewhere that I can set to make sure that SL does not give up when searching for a DHCP lease?
