  • 1.  Helper Bootp on EX9204 - Not Supported -

    Posted 05-18-2017 18:16

    Hi, 

     

    We need to activate the helper bootp on EX9204 and is not working.   Also we see a warning that indicates that this is not supported on this switches.  I want to know if there is any way that this could work.  

     

    }
    ##
    ## Warning: configuration block ignored: unsupported platform (ex9204)
    ##
    bootp {
    relay-agent-option;
    server x.x.x.;
    interface {
    irb.4021;
    ge-1/1/6.0;
    ge-1/1/7.0;
    ge-1/2/4.0;
    ge-1/2/5.0;
    }

     

     

    We have the same conf. on EX4200 and we have no problems.  Help please!. Thank you!

     

     

    Regards. 

     

    EC

    Hello, ecallen!

     

    I'd like to verify DHCP relay is functioning at all. Are you seeing incrementing counters on the dhcp relay statistics? Are leases being offered and accepted by the clients? Essentially, is the only issue BOOTP?

     

    Below is an example output from my lab.

    Do you have a route for 10.7.2.10? Are you able to ping it? Do you have any filters, such as a Loopback or interface filters applied? You may want to set a trace to see how JDHCP is handling the request. 

     

    set system processes dhcp-service traceoptions file JDHCP
    set system processes dhcp-service traceoptions file size 5m
    set system processes dhcp-service traceoptions file files 2
    set system processes dhcp-service traceoptions flag all
    

    Feel free to attach the JDHCP trace when you're done capturing.

    Hi, 

     

    We notice some filters on a Vlans IRB, I remove it and now we do see "replays  on the dhcp relay:

    However on the IRB.4021, we also receive the messages but not replay. I guess is something missing on the IRB.
