I have a network with mutiple vlans multiple dhcp servers. Someone else set it up but is unavailable to make the any changes. I would like to use a network that was shutdown vlan 26/192.168.26.x/23 see the config below. I have the dhcp server 192.168.26.0 length 23 I changed one of the interfaces to that vlan and i am not getting a dhcp address. I can ping the dhcp server 192.168.16.12.

If this is your interface config

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/27
 switchport access vlan 26

you need to add switchport mode access

Yes that is the interface how could i forget the mode let me change it.

Hi there, 

Cisco has DTP enabled by default set to "auto" if connected to a server or PC it will automatically go to access.

Nonetheless, try hardcoding it into access see if it works

Based on your config, can you verify your DHCP server IP?
You stated in your problem that it is 192.168.16.12, but in your configuration it is 192.168.16.2

Kindly check and change if necessary.

 

 

Don't forget to rate or mark as correct helpful post! :)

I check switchport mode access that isnt it. I dont see 192.168.16.2 where do you see that?

interface Vlan1
 ip address 192.168.29.1 255.255.255.0
 ip helper-address 192.168.28.2

Please verify your configuration

This ^^, it doesn't matter, it will still work, however, in the interests of security all access ports should be configured as such.

OP, how do you know your DHCP server is working correctly?
