You want to debug a DHCP problem.
To debug the server events, use the following EXEC command:
Router1#debug ip dhcp server events
The following command will allow you to monitor the actual DHCP-related packets being transmitted and received by the router:
Router1#debug ip dhcp server packet
The following debug capture shows a router performing normal housekeeping duties such as updating its address pools, checking for expired leases, assigning new leases, and revoking expired leases:
Router1#debug ip dhcp server events Sep 15 00:58:17.218: DHCPD: returned 172.25.1.51 to address pool COOKBOOK Sep 15 00:58:22.566: DHCPD: assigned IP address 172.25.1.51 to client 0100.0103.85e9. 87. Sep 15 01:01:15.056: DHCPD: writing bindings to ftp://dhcp:bindsave@172.25.1.1/dhcp- leases-rtr1. Sep 15 01:01:15.132: DHCPD: writing address 172.25.1.51. Sep 15 01:01:15.148: DHCPD: wrote automatic bindings to ftp://dhcp:bindsave@172.25.1. 1/dhcp-leases-rtr1. Sep 15 01:01:58.816: DHCPD: checking for expired leases. Sep 15 01:03:58.841: DHCPD: checking for expired leases. Sep 15 01:05:58.859: DHCPD: checking for expired leases. Sep 15 01:07:58.874: DHCPD: checking for expired leases. Sep 15 01:09:58.885: DHCPD: checking for expired leases. Sep 15 01:09:58.885: DHCPD: the lease for address 172.25.1.51 has expired. Sep 15 01:09:58.885: DHCPD: returned 172.25.1.51 to address pool COOKBOOK.
The next debug capture shows a typical DHCP client transaction between the client and router. The net result is that the router assigns IP address 172.25.1.51 to MAC address 0001.0385.e987:
Router1#debug ip dhcp server packet Sep 15 01:19:41.211: DHCPD: DHCPDISCOVER received from client 0100.0103.85e9.87 on interface FastEthernet0/0.1.
