Hello, I am running 1000v version 4.2(1)SV2(2.1a) with VSG 2 (1.1). I have set my 1000v switch to Advance edition; but VSG does not recognize that and therefore I cannot enable the dhcp snooping/relay feature on VSG. I have already successfully enabled dhcp snooping globally on 1000v switch.
I have 2 tenants; so I completely removed VSG and re-added it to the switch in one of them, thinking that re-addition may cause it to recognize the current edition. Following are some excerpts from 1000v and VSG:
===
nexus-vds# sh switch edition
Switch Edition: Advanced <<<<<<< this is my current edition on 1000v switch
Advanced Features
Feature Name Feature State
-----------------------------
cts disabled
dhcp-snooping enabled <<<<<< this is enabled globally on 1000v switch
vxlan-gateway disabled

tenant1-vsg(config)# feature dhcp
ERROR: DHCP feature can only be enabled when switch edition is Advanced

How does VSG know that switch is in Advance edition or not ? why is it not recognizing the current edition ? Any ideas ....?
===
Another point I would like to add is that before we applied configuration for VSG; just with 1000v in place (in essential edition); we were able to fire up VMs and DHCP worked without any issues. Also, I have bootpc and bootps allowed in the VSG policy going outbound from VM and DHCP relay is also configured to point to our Cobbler (DHCP) server.
