Client computers failing to get IP Address

Rick Morgan — Mon, 05 Jul 2021 09:02:50 GMT

Hello Everone

I'm using the Cisco Aironet 1140 Access Point.

Some clients connecting to the 1140 are being issued IP Addresses in the169.254.0.0 range while others on the same AP are 10.0.0.0 range, which is what they should be. I know Microsoft clients will default to 169.254.0.0 if they cannot obtain an IP from the DHCP server. I have checked the DHCP scope and there are plenty of addresses available. The problem is occurring on radio zero 2.4 GHz. Also the AP was using Channel 11 and there was a slight overlap from another AP so I changed it to Channel one but am still having the same trouble.

I'm looking for suggestions how to handle this problem.

Thanks for reading,

Rick

You'll want to make sure that the bridging is correct, if the 5GHz radio isn't having the same issue, you should be able to mimic those settings.

The other thing you can do, is capture the traffic on the wire and see if the AP is forwarding the DHCP request or not.
