Re: [lwip-users] Strategy Question for DHCP

[Robert Deschambault]

Hi,

Thanks!  I don't know if anyone has any experience with Dell switches, but I have tried this experiment and the Dell switch did not respond with a DHCP offer?  I have another switch made by MOXA and it responded properly and reconfigured the interface with a proper DORA.  I don't know if I have missed a configuration item in the Dell switch.

Yes.

DHCP will continue to run in the target, sending DHCP discover messages periodically. So, if a dhcp server comes on line then eventually the target will get a new IP address assigned by the DHCP server (dhcp offer) and abandon the autoip self-configured address.

Need some additional advice.  If I have a target with an autoip assigned IP address what should happen when a DHCP server becomes available?  Should it be doing a DHCP offer in response to the DHCP discover request from the client?
