Hi,
I have two questions about the DHCP server on the SG300:

Hi Robert, for some reason the text on your question is garbled. Can you post the questions again?
The answer to the first inquiry I believe is the host attempting to receive DHCP send an ACK back for decline for the DHCP message.

Hi Tom,
Thanks for the quick reply!
My second question is about an issue I am seeing with my WAP321.
If I statically bind an address to the WAP321's MAC address it will pull a dynamic address rather than the statically assigned one. If I update the static address binding to use the WAP321's client identifier it will then pull the statically bound address. Is the expected behavor? So far, my WAP321 is the only device I've had this issue with.
Thanks,
Bob

With the SX300/500 it is required the client identifier, it doesn't automatically insert it. If static DHCP is made on the switch and you didn't need client identifier, that is more or less fortunate behavior for you
So to answer this question, the expected behavior is to configure client identifier for static DHCP entry.

I understand that each static address entry has to have a MAC address or a client identifier so that the DHCP server knows who it is talking to. What I don't understand is why I can use a MAC for every device I have tried so far, except for the WAP321. The only way I can get a static address for the WAP321 is to use its client identifier. If I use the WAP321's MAC address I donn't get the static address I configured. I get a dynamic address instead.
Thanks,
Bob
