HELPPPP!!!!!1



I am trying to configure DHCP on a 2611 to issue addresses to the LAN on ethernet 0/0 but can not seem to get it to work.



Below is my conf if anyone can help it would be great.



Thanks

What part of the process is not working? Did you use a sniffer to see what was actually happening?

I see that you have the router configured as the DNS server. I doubt that the router is configured as a DNS server. Could it be that your hosts are getting IP addresses but are not able to do DNS resolution because the DNS address is wrong?

Did you turn on the DHCP server with : service dhcp ?? Also the domain-name could be a little confusing.What happens if you want to start using QoS?If it is for testing purposes I recommend something e.g. : testlan.com. The remark Brad made about the DNS server is something to keep in mind. Without DNS,you can ping based on IP addresses but not on names. To troubleshoot did you checked the clients if they are set to DHCP? Do they have a IP address and if so who provided them with this?

So:

1) I have started service dhcp 2) I have removed the router as DNS 3) I have changed the domain from QoS to testlab.com 4) I coped current to start up

ROUTER(config)#service dhcp ROUTER(config)#ip dhcp pool 1 ROUTER(dhcp-config)#no domain-name QoS ROUTER(dhcp-config)#no dns-server 192.168.1.1 ROUTER(dhcp-config)#domain-name testlab.com ROUTER(dhcp-config)#^Z ROUTER#

00:07:04: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console ROUTER#copy running-config startup-config

initial this didn't work - however after a reeboot i am now getting an IP address so thanks.
