DHCP debug

pcexhaust

I am having an issue with DHCP. I am using a cisco 1710 (one fastethernet and one ethernet) on my network. I live in an apartment where my ISP provides me a direct ethernet line to them. Everyone in the appartment gets an ethernet line. The ISP runs a DHCP server and supplies everyone at the appartment with their own IP.

Recently, I turned on the dhcp service to provide addresses to my LAN. A couple days later my ISP blocked my connection saying I was giving out IP addresses on their network. From what I can tell, my router is receiving requests but not handing out IPs. I'm not sure if by seeing the traffic if it does any responses at all. From what they[ISP] have told me, the router is seeing the DHCP requests but not giving anyone an IP. However, this is causing other computers on the network to not get an IP at all. All need to figure out what the issue is. The following is my configuration with comments and the debug. Any help would be highly appreciated.

Debug:

The 208.x.x.180 is the DHCP assigned address to my ethernet (WAN) port.

Router#debug ip dhcp server events

Hi,

I have never seen a router hand out addresses for the wrong network before.

I think you need to block inbound DHCP requests on your Ethernet0 interface. If I were you I would also set up the IOS firewall on your Ethernet0 interface. Try pasting this into your router: (you will need at the advanced security feature set)

conf t

int e0

no ip access-group 101 out

exit

no access-list 101

access-list 101 permit udp any eq bootps any eq bootpc

access-list 101 deny ip any any

ip inspect name FW http

ip inspect name FW ftp

ip inspect name FW udp router-traffic

ip inspect name FW tcp router-traffic

int e0

ip inspect FW out

ip access-group 101 in

no fair-queue

end

wr

This should allow your router to get a DHCP address from your provider and prevent your neighbors from seeing ANYTHING on your network.

Thank you for your reply. I have added your configuration to my router. When I enable the same debugging as before, I only get:

*Apr 8 11:52:47.550: DHCPD: checking for expired leases.

*Apr 8 11:54:47.550: DHCPD: checking for expired leases.

*Apr 8 11:56:47.550: DHCPD: checking for expired leases.

So, it looks like the issue is fixed!
