POAP failure

[narkalya]

I am doing a POAP over DHCP/TFTP server, But when the switch initiate the POAP process i see this below error "

%$ VDC-1 %$ %POAP-2-POAP_INFO: Invalid DHCP OFFER from 0.0.0.0: Missing Script Name" 

What is causing this issue ?

Do you have a DHCP server setup? Does the switch have any other configuration on the switch?

Also see the below support case as well that might help.

I tried the above link: it talks about the general instructions and i hope i followed them during my setup

Here are the details of my DHCP server: 

subnet 10.100.100.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {

range 10.100.100.11 10.100.100.253;

option domain-name "Domain name";

option domain-name-servers <DNS address>;

option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;

option routers 10.100.100.1;

option tftp-server-name "<DHCP address>";

}

host <hostname> {

fixed-address 10.100.100.52;

option host-name "<hostname>";

option routers 10.100.100.1;

#option dhcp-client-identifier "\<Serial No>";

#option bootfile-name "poap.py";

        }

What interface do you have the switch connecting to the rest of the network. It should send out the DHCP request out all interface and the mgmt interface.

I see the DHCP offer requests are receives on the DHCP Server, But on the Switch ( 3172 ) side, It gives the above error as "Invalid DHCP OFFER from 0.0.0.0: Missing Script Name" "

Weird, from what I see it should be working.
