Can your controller ping the LinkSys router? Also, you've configured the DHCP server on the controller's interface, correct?

Thank you for replying Mr Jeff.

The problem was on the Linksys DHCP server wich does not response to unicast DHCP request from the contrôler.

Haha, thanks for the rating, even though I didn't do anything :D

5 points for coming back and letting us know what the problem was. I always enjoy learning something new! Sorry that your solution won't work with the LinkSys, though. Maybe you can configure a DHCP service on your switch, rather than purchasing an entire server for it.

Hello Mr Jeff,

I have configured an internal dhcp on the WLC and it works perfectly.

The dhcp from the linksys will work if you disable dhcp by proxy on the controller. To do this go to the cli and enter "config dhcp proxy disable" This will allow your router to handle the dhcp.
