My Problem is When I connect to the Port assigned to the vlan22 I dont not get IP
But when I configure manual I am able to ping the gateway of of the vlan22 which is on the 3850
I dont know what am doing wrong.

Hello,

 

When you connect your laptop and give it a static IP. Can you ping all the way to the DHCP server? The DHCP server will need to have reachability all the way back to vlan 22. This is because the relay will encapsulate the discover in a unicast packet with a source IP of vlan 22. You could also try to ping the DHCP server from the 3850 sourced from vlan 22. (ping 192.168.200.96 source vlan 22).

 

If the ping fails, you will need to troubleshoot that connectivity. If the ping is successful, you might want to do a wireshark capture on the PC while it is trying to DHCP an IP to see where the process is failing. 

 

Hope that helps!
