Default VLAN: 10.36.0.0/24 New VLAN : 10.36.8.0/24 DHCP server : 10.36.0.17

I can see the DHCP offer packets making it back to my VLAN ip address namely 10.36.8.31 (from dhcp server message log)

Apr 28 15:33:13 dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 10.36.8.129 to via 10.36.8.31

However the dhcp offer never makes it back to my machine connected to the new vlan(verified with wireshark as well)

The switch is HP Layer 3 Procurve

Any suggestions as to why the DHCP offer cant hop from 10.36.8.31 to my machine on same subnet?

    You're using RFC 1918 ip addresses. They're not relevant to anyone but you. We can't hack your network knowing your RFC 1918 ip address range. Stop obfuscating them in your question. Nobody can make sense of that.

  • Apologies, edited. Clearly I'm new to this network administration thing Apr 28, 2016 at 20:18
  • Thanks much. Now my brain can parse it. I don't do much with switching/routing but I see this statement: ip route 10.36.8.0 255.255.255.0 10.36.8.1, but I see this ip address for VLAN 8: ip address 10.36.8.31 255.255.255.0. That doesn't seem right to me. Shouldn't the route be 10.36.8.0 255.255.255.0 10.36.8.31?

  • I tried that already while configuring a route but I get the error "10.36.8.31 can not be switch IP address and route gateway at the same time". Apr 28, 2016 at 21:02

I'm thinking that you probably don't need to define an explicit route for the 10.36.8.0/24 network because it's a directly connected network. Try removing that routing statement and then look at the routing table and see if there's a route for 10.36.8.0 that shows as directly connected or similar. I'm not familiar with HP switches, so I'm basing this on my knowledge of Inter-VLAN routing with Cisco switches. Then see if your DHCP client gets a DHCP assigned ip address.

Here's the output from a Cisco 3560 switch. You'll see that I have no explicitly defined routing statements for my VLAN's, as they're all directly connected.

Switch#sh ip route
Codes: C - connected, S - static, I - IGRP, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP
       D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area
       N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2
       E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2, E - EGP
       i - IS-IS, L1 - IS-IS level-1, L2 - IS-IS level-2, ia - IS-IS inter area
       * - candidate default, U - per-user static route, o - ODR
       P - periodic downloaded static route

Gateway of last resort is not set

     10.0.0.0/16 is subnetted, 4 subnets
C       10.1.0.0 is directly connected, Vlan10
C       10.2.0.0 is directly connected, Vlan20
C       10.3.0.0 is directly connected, Vlan30
C       10.4.0.0 is directly connected, Vlan40

  • done, still the same. The vlan does seem to be connected although I don't know if the output of my "show ip route" is analogous to yours, it probably is IP Route Entries Destination Gateway VLAN Type Sub-Type Metric Dist. ------------------ --------------- ---- --------- ---------- ---------- ----- 10.36.0.0/24 DEFAULT_VLAN 1 connected 1 0 10.36.8.0/24 WiredUsers 8 connected 1 0 Apr 28, 2016 at 21:18
  • Is the DHCP client connected to a port in VLAN 8?

  • yes, the only port in that vlan, port 20. Apr 28, 2016 at 21:40
