It is quite normal for primary and secondary servers to respond to a dhcpdiscover. It is up to the client to choose which response to accept. For example the client might choose the address that it has had before, or perhaps just take the first reply.<br>

The different addresses offered by primary and secondary is also normal. The two servers divide up the available addresses between them, and offer an address from their pool of addresses.<br></blockquote><div><br>I think that the normal <span id="result_box" class="short_text" lang="en"><span title="Haz clic para obtener traducciones alternativas" class="hps">behavior is:<br>
