Hi all,

I have recently migrated two switch extreme network 5420F-24S-4XE in Stack for our customer,
I have encountered an issue concerning DHCP functionality,


Specifically,Although DHCP Relay has been enabled on the switches ,DHCP client are unable to obtain an IP address.

It is pertinent to mention that our client had been utilizing a Cisco switches for several years prior to this transition and without having any problem with DHCP

please note that I have  verified that the configuration is configured correctly, from the switch and from the DHCP server side,

I tried to capture the traffic using wire shark , the traffic stop in the switch ,

we request your assistance for this problem, given the critical nature of the DHCP service in the network

thank you for return

As Stefan mentioned:

Most Cisco folks forget to enable DHCP-Relay and IP-Forwarding on the VLAN in the direction of the DHCP server (rtlookup <DHCP Server IP>).

Be sure that you've enabled both bootprelay and IP Forwarding on the server VLAN.

IP-Forwarding enabled on the VLANs?
DHCP Relay enabled on both VLANs (Client- + Server-VLAN)?
