dhcp excluded-address cannot function

[interfacedy]

Hi We have the below configuration for dhcp server. Client can get ip address from it, but the ip address is within dhcp excluded-address. Is this dhcp excluded wrong? Thank you

ip dhcp excluded-address vrf ABC 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.20

!

ip vrf ABC
rd 100:10
!
ip dhcp pool test1

vrf ABC
network 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0
default-router 192.168.1.1
!
interface vlan 100
ip vrf forwarding ABC
ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0

I do not see anything wrong here, i was guessing mostly order of operation with VRF.,

try

no ip dhcp excluded-address vrf ABC 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.20

and 

ip dhcp excluded-address vrf ABC 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.20

and test it.

Hello,

you need to stop and restart the 'service dhcp':

Router#conf t

Router(config)#no service dhcp

Router(config)#service dhcp

Hello,

just out of curiosity, how did you resolve this ?

The issue might not be there initially : )
