I'm new to Switches. I inherited 2 switches 3550 and 3560. My core switch is 3560 linked to 3550 on port 1. One of the vlan24  with IP 10.164.24.0 is not pointing request to my windows 2008 DHCP server for IP leases. I have a IP-Helper associated with the vlan24. I need all your help

core#sh running-config
Building configuration...

interface Vlan24
 ip address 10.164.24.1 255.255.255.128
 ip helper-address 10.164.9.11
 ip helper-address 10.164.9.18

 

also a show vlan has:

Can you ping the DHCP server sourcing from Vlan24 on the switch ?

Have hosts on vlan 24 ever been able to reach the DHCP server?

I would say yes because prior to me they used this vlan in conjuction with a scope in DHCP for all wireless devices. The scope still remains however, I've since replace the centrally managed WAP (Wireless Access Point) with AP541N

Are you tagging vlan 24 on the AP?

I will be honest I don't know how to Tag vlan 24 on the AP except by giving it the vlan # as shown:

Hi,

Is the DHCP service enabled on the switch acting as a relay agent?

To verify, output of sh run | i service dhcp should not be empty.

If it is not enabled, do it with global config command "service dhcp"

Yes I can ping the DHCP server from the switch. However when I do a traceroute to it, I get an endless loop
