DHCP not working on 837.

I think that the "vrf" reference is an MPLS thing. I have seen the positive form in 837's with no adverse effect on DHCP.

Maybe the default is (no entry in config that is) "ip dhcp use vrf connected xyz"

Here is one that is working. (At least for DHCP:).

no ip dhcp use vrf connected ip dhcp excluded-address 10.10.10.1 ip dhcp excluded-address 192.168.122.1 192.168.122.50 ip dhcp excluded-address 192.168.122.54 ! ip dhcp pool client network 192.168.122.0 255.255.255.0 dns-server 192.168.5.12 192.168.7.12 213.120.62.103 domain-name qqq.com netbios-node-type h-node option 150 instance 1 ip 192.168.200.10 option 150 instance 2 ip 192.168.210.10 option 66 ascii "phone" default-router 192.168.122.1 lease infinite

sh ip dhcp bin Bindings from all pools not associated with VRF: IP address Client-ID/ Lease expiration Type Hardware address/ User name

I have the same configuration but............. Stupid me! I had an access lists on the interface ethernet0 that blocked all the DHCPREQUEST packets. This the ACL

access-list 140 permit ip 10.135.3.96 0.0.0.31 192.168.31.0 0.0.0.255 access-list 140 permit ip 10.135.3.96 0.0.0.31 a.b.c.0 0.0.0.255 access-list 140 permit ip 10.135.3.96 0.0.0.31 e.f.g.0 0.0.0.255

put on the ethernet 0

but obviuously it blocks all DHCP packets. So the question is:

which is the source address and the destination address of a DHCP packet? Maybe

Many thanks

This is what I use that works for me:

access-list 102 permit udp host 0.0.0.0 host 255.255.255.255
