leasequery help!

[Ray O'Leary]

Dear Shane,
	Thanks so much for the great assist. I was looking at
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=dhcp-server&m=106684684729418&w=2
	that has LEASEQUERY=13!

	I'll try this and let you know.
regards,
Ray.

I think the answer is in the question. :)

If Option 53 = 0x010d, this means that the message type is DHCPLEASEACTIVE,
not
DHCPLEASEQUERY. From RFC 4388:

                        Value   Message Type
                         -----   ------------
                           10    DHCPLEASEQUERY
                           11    DHCPLEASEUNASSIGNED
                           12    DHCPLEASEUNKNOWN
                           13    DHCPLEASEACTIVE

You didn't say what software was issuing the LEASEQUERY, but my guess is
that is
the problem.

For the rest of your message:

- - Yes, you need 3.1 because LEASEQUERY support was not added until then.

- - Even if you don't enable LEASEQUERY, you will still see log messages on
the
server (which will report that the message is ignored). These are sent to
syslog
at a level LOG_INFO.
