Dhcp not working

mgutierr

I have 3 vlans on a C9300 4 switches stack
have vlan 112 -> 172.16.112.0 (data)
       vlan 312 -> 192.168.112.0 (voice)
       vlan 221 -> 10.1.112.0 (wireless)
and a dedicated windows server for dhcp scopes for each single vlan. (172.16.0.109)
ping from the C9300 to the dhcp works fine
VLAN 112 is gathering dhcp but VLAN 221 is not , so any device connected from gi 4/0/31 to 4/0/48 is not getting
10.1.112.X address from the scope, if i do setup manually static ips on any device it works.
 
i'm pretty sure that you guys are going to be able to help me out

Let me answer myself on this matter:

the answer is pretty much related to DHCP protocol and how cisco handles it,

1st.

since DHCP sends broadcast traffic to a vlan it has to be controlled, so by default you just have to assign 

an ip helper-address to manage dhcp requests out of your vlan.

2nd.

check if your switch has dhcp relay service enable, for my particular model (C9300) i did delete and option that was preventing dhcp to run : no service dhcp

 

 

hope it help somebody with the same issue

Hi all,

 

I had the same problem and the solution was to add the following commands in the vlan interface configuration:

 

ip dhcp relay information trusted
ip dhcp relay information option-insert
ip dhcp relay information check-reply

 

i.e.:

 

interface Vlan1012
description Telefonia Placa 1
ip dhcp relay information trusted
ip dhcp relay information option-insert  
ip dhcp relay information check-reply  
ip address 10.171.0.1 255.255.252.0
ip helper-address 10.103.0.1  
load-interval 30

 

Then the relay started working. Removing the previous config it kept running

 

Best,

You have statement no service dhcp on you running-config.

Remove that statement would fix your issue.

config t

service dhcp

end

wr mem

reload the switch if possible.
