DHCP on WLC not working

[dsuhas321]

Experts,

We have a WLC, Just for the testing purpose we created internal pool on the WLC and the WLC is not lending the IP address to the clients. DHCP doesnot work on the WLC?

Thanks in advance..

Here is the software bug that we are running on the 6.0.199.4

if by any chance if you are running this code then the work around is to run the DHCP externally.. or open up a case with TAC and we will publish the image..
