PERATIONAL
Once the DHCP Proxy Client manager has been successfully initialized and enabled, it should
begin obtaining IP addresses from DHCP servers. The manager examines any WAN and WAN
(Direct Host) network interfaces. It then attempts to satisfy the “number of IP addresses to pre-
fetch” for each of these network interfaces.
UDP P
ORTS
In order to reach DHCP servers, the DHCP Proxy Client will open the BOOTPC UDP port, and
possibly the BOOTPS UDP port. One or both of the following messages should then appear in the
report log:
[DHCP-P] UDP port (67) opened
[DHCP-P] UDP port (68) opened
If neither of these error messages is found in the report log, refer to
DHCP Proxy Client Operation
in
the Problem Diagnosis chapter.
