Interesting. I think that initial offer is a broadcast packet…..maybe that “reliable multicast” setting affects broadcast as well?

Client had been running fine for about 3 days before it started erroring (3 hour DHCP Lease). Nothing was logged with the firewall rules on the Mikrotik doing the DHCP Server. I have a mikrotik between the 450SM an the EPMP AP, I was able to run a packet capture from there. I ran it on the interface of the EPMP radio. It was showing the DHCP Discover being sent to the Server, and the DHCP Offer being sent back to the client, but that was it, no DHCP Request Packet coming from the EPMP Interface. On the EPMP AP, I changed the 'Reliable Multicast' from Disabled to Enabled. And the client immediately got a DHCP lease after saving that (No AP Reboot). The DHCP Request Packet came back from the client as soon as the Discover/offer packets were sent. I'm not convinced that was the issue, as I don't have it enabled on ay other EPMP radio on the network. It seemed more like making a change in the AP reset something in the EPMP network stack. It's just strange that it happens so randomly.

AP and SM are both 2.4 non-GPS radios. Feed to site is a 450B off a450M AP. Relay from barn to house using 2.4 EPMP 1000 radios. Was working fine when I left, 3 hours later, DHCP lease timed out (Mikrotik DHCP Lease time) and would not get new lease. Rebooting the 1000 Radio acting as the AP fixed it. If it happens again, I'll try to get a packetcapture off it.

If you have a mikrotik, add an input rule allow udp 67. Just for kicks. It might be this issue that i have that policy for.

No MAC limit on the SM's When it exhibits itself, a customer who has been running for weeks will timeout their lease, and the mikrotik will just go to 'offered' Rebooting the AP always fixes it.

That would apply to a DHCP discover, but not to a renewal. ….but either the MAC limit or broadcast limit would clear when rebooting the SM, and he says rebooting the SM has no effect. Is DHCP running on the port that the AP is plugged into, or is there a DHCP relay involved?

Wondering if anyone else has come across something similar. Mikrotik DHCP Server. EPMP1000 GPS AP, Force 300 SM. At a random time, one or More Force 300 SM's on the AP will lose the ability to hand out a DHCP Address to the client. The Mikrotik just shows 'Offered' Rebooting or powercycling the SM has no effect. If the SM Connects to a different sector, then DHCP is immediately handed out. If the AP reboots, and the SM reconnects, then DHCP is immediately handed out. If the SM is set for NAT mode, it can get a DHCP Address just fine, but switching back to bridge, the Customer router will not get DHCP. I've experienced this from 4.4.3 all the way up to 4.6.3. It always seems to be an EPMP1000 AP with a Foce300 SM, but does not affect every Force300 SM at the same time. At least now I know when I start having this problem to go reboot the AP. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
