Regarding testing DHCP server running on minicom

[Aparna V]

Hi everyone,
      I am having problems during the testing of the DHCP server which 
is currently running on S3C2410 target platform. When i run dhcpd in the 
minicom the following happens :
"# dhcpd
Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Server 4.0.0

For info, please visit http://www.isc.org/sw/dhcp/
Wrote 0 deleted host decls to leases file.
Wrote 0 new dynamic host decls to leases file.
Wrote 0 leases to leases file.
Listening on LPF/eth0/0a:0b:3e:26:0a:5b/172.16.5.0/24
Sending on   LPF/eth0/0a:0b:3e:26:0a:5b/172.16.5.0/24
Sending on   Socket/fallback/fallback-net"
How can i test if the server is working in a proper way?
Regards
