Hi,
i have a problem with dhcp on a token ring net. On the ethernet
segments everything works fine. The token ring itself works fine,
too (with manually configured addresses). If I start a dhcp-request
on a client there is no respond from the server. (I watched the
traffic on the lan with an analyzer an the request is really there,
but no response). Following some configs/outputs regarding this:
First the token-ring interface:
tr0 Link encap:16/4 Mbps TR HWaddr 00:06:29:B0:FA:2D
inet addr:172.22.3.1 Bcast:172.22.3.127 Mask:255.255.255.128
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:2000 Metric:1
RX packets:1219 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:710 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
Interrupt:11 Base address:0xb800
Then the config of the dhcpd:
subnet 172.22.3.0 netmask 255.255.255.128 {
option broadcast-address 172.22.3.127;
option domain-name-servers 172.22.3.1;
option routers 172.22.3.1;
range 172.22.3.2 172.22.3.10;
}
host XXX {
hardware token-ring 00:00:F6:66:D7:6B;
fixed-address 172.22.3.4;
}
After starting the dhcpd there is the following output in ..messages:

Is there something special to configure for token-ring. As fas a I know
there is a difference in the order of the bits on ethernet and token-ring,
(little vs. big endian), but I think this conversion is made at the daemon
(through the token-ring hardware-type) or do I have to move the bits?
Any experiences regarding this are appreciated.
Thank you
Patrick
