Interface not accepting DHCP address

[Adam_S]

Have configured an interface on cisco 2811 for DHCP, it is up/up but not accepting an address. I've attached a basic config and DHCP debug. Any advice would be appreciated, any further info can be provided.

Hello Peter, 

I am probably wrong, and you likely right. I just remembered there was something about the source routing. My very first router was running an 11.x version, there were all kinds of 'weird' things going on.

Curious to see how this gets resolved...

Hi Georg,

Oh, yes, there was this

no ip classless

configured by default, and there was the

ip subnet-zero

which allowed or disallowed the use of the first subnet of a major network (for example,

10.0.0.0/24 of 10.0.0.0/8

). Weird classful times indeed! : )

Best regards,
Peter

Georg, if you do recall something

weird

about source routing, please send me a follow up message.

Reason I ask, possibly I'm among the few that liked to use source routing while troubleshooting some network issues.

BTW, I know disabling source routing applied to transit traffic, don't know if it also applies to same device sourced traffic.

i added this command. No improvement.
