Cabletron Systems CSX1200 CyberSWITCH does not have Compression Enabled, Enabling the Relay Agent

PROBLEM DIAGNOSIS

DHCP: Relay Agent

•The CyberSWITCH does not have Compression ENABLED

In this case, the CyberSWITCH will respond to all attempts by the peer to open CCP with a TERM-ACK frame. The connection will operate uncompressed. (Note: a device that supports compression but has it disabled will typically do the exact same thing).

DHCP: RELAY AGENT

RELAY AGENT INITIALIZATION

Problem:

The following messages appear in the report log, after system initialization:

[DHCP-R] Failed to allocated memory for transmit buffer pool

[DHCP-R] Relay Agent initialization failed

Action:

These messages indicate that an error occurred during initialization of the DHCP/BOOTP Relay Agent. Therefore, the relay agent will not operate correctly. Contact your Distributor or Customer Support.

ENABLING THE RELAY AGENT

Problem:

The following message appears in the report log (after system initialization, or after the DHCP/ BOOTP Relay Agent has been enabled from MANAGE mode):

[DHCP-R] Failed to open UDP port (67), erc = <error return code>

Action:

This message indicated that an internal error occurred while trying to open a UDP port for use by the DHCP/BOOTP Relay Agent. Therefore, the relay agent will not operate correctly. Contact your Distributor or Customer Support.

Problem:

The following message is NOT found in the report log after system initialization:

[DHCP-R] Relay Agent enabled; UDP port (67) opened

Action:

This situation indicates that there was no attempt made to enable the DHCP/BOOTP Relay Agent.

1.Check the DHCP configuration. This can be done by using CFGEDIT, or by using the dhcp command from Manage Mode.

2.Make sure that the Relay Agent is enabled.
