Re: Ip helper address
You have 2 DHCP servers on the same subnet??? This is probably not a good idea... it does not really provide redundancy or load balancing. The DHCP client will issue a request and accept the first response that it gets. If you split your scope such that half of your available addresses are on one server and half are on the other, you will *NOT* see that half of your clients use one server while half use the other. If for some reason one server always replies a nanosecond earlier than the other, then all clients will accept the response from that server. Once that server is out of addresses, it will start sending nack's. The clients will start accepting those nack's and will not request an address again, even though the other DHCP server may have dozens of free addresses to offer. SO - in answer to your question, the ip helper address of 10.10.10.0 will allow your client's requests to reach all DHCP servers on that subnet, HOWEVER they will only accept leases from the first server from which they receive a response. Chances are that server will be the same one all the time, even after it runs out of addresses to offer... You *could* set up your DHCP servers such that the scope on EACH ONE is sufficient to offer leases to ALL of you clients, but that is probably a less than efficient use of your address space.

Re: Ip helper address
I don't understand this, wouldn't the client accept the second offer by sending the seconds servers siaddr in the request packet. also DHCP standard says that nowhere must a client accept the first offer and then stop broadcasting. All servers will answer the clients DHCPDISCOVER broadcast with any help it can or can not offer. The first server does not tell the second server to shutup so as soon as the (second or 1nanosecond slower server) receives the broadcast it will it will send a DHCPOFFER packet and the client will reply with an DHCPREQUEST packet to the second server (using the siaddr field) that will be ack'd by the second server with an DHCPACK packet. This is all made quite clear in RFC 1541. So you can have two DHCP servers on the same segment you just don't know which one will serve the address to the client but both will try independent of each other and the client will ot stop trying after receiving after a nack from a server.

Re: Ip helper address
Perhaps I should be more clear about this and say that this is the behaviour of MICROSOFT DHCP clients. Here is the info from the Windows NT Resource kit: "Note: The client accepts the first offer it receives, regardless of whether the offer came from a DHCP server on the local subnet or from a DHCP server on a different subnet. ... In the case where the DHCP server is unavailable or there is no available IP addressing information to lease to a client computer, the client is unable to bind to TCP/IP." An MS DHCP client may receive many DHCPOFFER's for its DHCPDISCOVER broadcast. It will accept the first offer it receives (actually, the first response it gets), and NACK all others. If the first response it gets is negative, it will settle for that, and NACK anything from the other servers. I have seen this (and sniffer traced it) in production. MS was unwilling to call it a bug, and said the behaviour was by design and was RFC compliant. Case was closed... This was NT 4.0 Service pack 4 with Win98 clients. I dunno if they have changed things since, but I doubt it.

Re: Ip helper address
It is possible two have two DHCP servers in one subnet. The client will accept the first IP address it recieves. This is done to remove the Single point-of-failure in the one DHCP server. Some DHCP server software will allow two or more servers to share a synchronized copy of the address pool database, to simplify administration. Getting to the question... According to the Cisco Press ACRC book, if you have multiple ip helper-address ('S) defined, any UDP broadcasts recieved on the allowed udp ports will be unicasted to each of the IP helpers. It's not just DHCP either, it's: DHCP, DNS, TFTP, TIME, NETBIOS NAME SERVICE, NETBIOS DATAGRAM SERVICE, AND TACACS.

Doesn't a MS client go for a new server after 87.5% of the lease if It can't contact it's original server.

Re: IP Helper Address [7:13539]
no...the two are nothing alike a default gateway is just thatyour next hop out. and ip helper can be any address on any subnet that would generally answer a broadcast from a host on a local segment. But since routers stop broadcasts by default, you must specify this address as a "helper" . The router then takes would would normally be a broadcast and forwards it to this "helper" address as a unicast. (most commonly used in this scenario is bootp/dhcp) -Patrick >>> "Jason Kinney" 07/24/01 12:52PM >>> I have heard this term "IP helper address" used to reference a default gateway.

Re: IP Helper Address [7:13539]
ip helper address can be used to find a dhcp server on a different segment than what you are. Your computer will broadcast a dhcp request (layer 3 which will not get through a router) for a dhcp server on a different segment. ip helper address will allow your machine access to the dhcp server through the router. however, be aware that ip helper address does open up other ports. - Original Message - From: Jason Kinney To: Sent: Tuesday, July 24, 2001 11:52 AM Subject: IP Helper Address [7:13539] > I have heard this term "IP helper address" used to reference a default > gateway.

Yes you can. Just type in the command multiple times in the interface config mode. If servers are on the same network, then you can use the network address instead of the host addr.

RE: IP Helper-address questions [7:247]
I assume when you say PDC, you are referring to an NT server PDC. I must also assume you have TCP/IP installed on all NT servers needing to communicate to each other. If so, then the ip-helper command is of no use. It merely forwards bootp and DHCP requests. If you need a PDC and a BDC to communicate then just make sure both servers are reporting to a common WINS server. From the WINS server the PDC and BDC will know what IP addresses they nees to use to communicate. As long as the servers can ping each other and WINS is configured properly then you are cooking.

Re: IP Helper-address questions [7:247]
Actually, the IP helper command is placed on the interface that is recieving the broadcasts. Now you have to decide which router is supposed to recieve the broadcasts. But in usual case, Clients usually try to communcate with the PDC for authentication and other stuffs. So, i think it would work to configure ip helper-address w.x.y.z on the ethernet interface of router 1 only (where w.x.y.z is the ip address of your PDC, but if you have multiple PDCs then you have to give the directed-broadcast address and also have to use ip directed-broadcast command).

I happen to be a ccnp and mcse. I get how ip helper-address works. Also work with microsoft dhcp servers. How do you setup a scope for a remote subnet, and how does the dhcp server know how to hand out the correct ip leases for a non-connected subnet? Does the dhcp server look at the source address of the interface of the forwarded helper-address packets? Then match up the correct scope with the router interface ip address? ""Jason J.

Re: IP Helper-address questions [7:247]
Yup, you got it. Just set up the extra scope(s) for the subnet(s) you have the ip helper-address enabled port(s) on. The DHCP server sees the source address (or perhaps network address/mask, I'm not sure the down and dirty details), and sends an appropriate DHCP address from the scope that fits that subnet. -- Jason Roysdon, CCNP+Security/CCDP, MCSE, CNA, Network+, A+ List email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://jason.artoo.net/ ""Michael Snyder"" wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > I happen to be a ccnp and mcse.

Then match up the correct scope with the >router interface ip address? The source MAC address is the router's address (assuming the packet only went one hop), but the source IP address is 0.0.0.0, so that doesn't help. What does help is that the DHCP packet has a GIAddr (Gateway IP Address) field. The router that forwards the packet puts its own address in that field. The router puts the address for the interface that the DHCP Discover packet came in on. The remote DHCP server can figure out which scope it's dealing with from that info. The GIAddr should be from the same subnet as the requesting host. Priscilla >""Jason J.

Re: IP Helper-address questions [7:247]
Yes, The DHCP server will check the IP address of the interface on which you have configured the IP Helper address command. So make pools on the DHCP server accordingly. eg: Router's interface 192.168.1.1/16 Server' pool 192.168.0.1-192.168.255.254 wil work. Muhammad Khalilullah CCNP, MCSE --- "Jason J.

Re: IP Helper-address questions [7:247]
Actually, you'll want to make the pools only as big as the subnet, unless you know some trick I don't Muhammed. Each pool will need a default gateway assigned as part of the scope, and unless you're doing a /16 range for 192.168/16, then you'll want a pool for each 192.168/24 network. Don't forget to take advantage of the global attributes. Set your DNS, WINS, and whatever settings are the same for each pool as a global setting, and only those settings that need to be unique for each pool (Gateway is all I can think of). This way you don't have to specify these same settings for each pool. A pool-specific attribute will also override the Global attribute for that pool, so even if you had a local WINS and/or DNS server that you want one network to use, still set the Global for whatever is the main configuration. Don't forget if you use WINS to set the node type to 0x8 (hybrid). -- Jason Roysdon, CCNP+Security/CCDP, MCSE, CNA, Network+, A+ List email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://jason.artoo.net/ ""Muhammed Khalilullah"" wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > Yes, The DHCP server will check the IP address of the > interface on which you have configured the IP Helper > address command.

RE: IP helper address and subnet broadcast [7:25485]
Depends on what you're trying to do...the utility I used here is just "nmap" - see www.insecure.org (note: this is a bit of a "hacking" tool, so use with caution). This is basically a port scanning tool, you can specify a remote subnet to scan but you give it the range of addresses to probe, I don't see why you couldn't probe a remote host that just happened to have the same address as the subnet broadcast somewhere. I guess by definition, if you've got a default gateway configured and are sending traffic to a remote subnet you'll have the local router's MAC address as the destination. If you're looking to do something a bit more elaborate you can try to use a Sniffer to manufacture a string of packets but it is probably more trouble than it's worth. I'm sure that there are plenty of hacker tools that will do this but you'll probably need to go lurking on some different lists to find them... -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Logan, Harold Sent: Wednesday, November 07, 2001 2:32 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: IP helper address and subnet broadcast [7:25485] Interesting...

RE: IP helper address and subnet broadcast [7:25485]
The few times I've needed a packet manipulator, SnifferPro has worked fine for me. The idea I was shooting for (please keep in mind that yesterday I was working on 3 hours of sleep and no caffeine) was to put together a layer 3 broadcast with a layer 2 unicast address, specifically the destination MAC of the router's ethernet interface. That, combined with some packet debugging or accounting on the far router, could tell you if the router forwards traffic to the ip helper address because the layer 2 destination addy is all F's, or if it forwards to the ip helper addres because the layer 3 destination address is the subnet's broadcast addy. I suppose if I'm that curious I should get off my arse and set up such a scenario here, but I let someone else label the cables in my pod, and I'm still working on fixing it... right now the classroom where we keep the routers has v.35 and cat5 cables strewn all over the place.

Re: IP helper-address, domain browsing & N [7:36089]
I am going to venture a guess :- According to MS NT's static ports assignment, TCP: 42 is for WINS replication, perhaps by changing this statetment from ip nat inside source static 10.0.3.40 xxx.xxx.xxx.156 extendable to ip nat inside source static 10.0.3.40 42 xxx.xxx.xxx.156 42 extendable may solve the problem. However, according to MS two other ports are also used in WINS functions: TCP:135 for WINS Manager and TCP:137 for WINS Registration. Interest to know if this helps.

Re: Ip helper address: which is the mac address? [7:44608]
The DHCP server doesn't read the actually MAC address of the client PC. The DHCP client builds a DHCP request packet that includes the client's MAC address. The DHCP relay just passes that packet to the DHCP server, along with additional information (such as what subnet the request is coming from).

Re: IP helper address with multiple vlans and 1 DHCP [7:351]
Ruddy, If I understand the question (not necessarily a true statement): When the DHCP client (PC host) comes up it will send a broadcast for DHCP service, the vlan router will see the request packet and forward the request to the DHCP server using the IP helper address setup in the interface config. When the request is sent it indicates to the DHCP server which network this request is coming from and the DHCP will search the available scopes and select the scope that is for the requesting network. The server offer will be returned to the router which in turn sends it to the original requestor at which time the conversation becomes a unicast between the DHCP client and server. On the other hand if you are trying to reserver a specific IP within a scope for a specific PC host it must be setup on the DHCP server with the clients macaddr as a M-DHCP (manual dhcp). The conversation occurs as before except on a specific IP will be returned that satifies the macaddr -to- IP reservation setup on the DHCP server. Repost with clarifications if this has not help resolve the issue.
