29.5 DHCP option 82

Troubleshooting

DHCP option 82 is implemented as a sub-function module of DHCP Relay Agent. Before using

it, users should make sure that the DHCP Relay Agent is configured correctly.

DHCP option 82 needs the DHCP Relay Agent and the DHCP server cooperate to finish the

task of allocating IP addresses. The DHCP server should set allocating policy correctly

depending on the network topology of the DHCP Relay Agent, or, even the Relay Agent can

operate normally, the allocation of addresses will fail. When there is more than one kind of

Relay Agent, please pay attention to the retransmitting policy of the interface DHCP request

messages.

To implement the option 82 function of DHCP Rela

y Agent, the “debug dhcp relay packet”

command can be used during the operating procedure, including adding the contents of option

82, the retransmitting policy adopted, the option 82 contents of the server peeled by the Relay

Agent and etc., such information can help users to do troubleshooting.
To implement the option 82 function of DHCP server, the “debug ip dhcp server packet”

command can be used during the operating procedure to display the procedure of data

packets processing of the server, including displaying the identified option 82 information of the

request message and the option 82 information returned by the reply message.
