2801 is doing dhcp - and I wanted to get a packet capture to see why 2 thin 
clients won't get dhcp leases successfully from the 2801 upon boot up (so 
before the client has an ip from dhcp - isn't the dhcp transaction all arp?)

Subject: Re: [c-nsp] Embeded Packet Capture for DHCP Troubleshooting

I just re-read and saw it was the 2601 as the dhcp server.

What problem are you trying to solve?

Hi Jeff - which device is performing the dhcp server function and what problem 
are you actually having?

All:

I would like to use Embedded Packet Capture at a remote site to troubleshoot 
IOS DHCP at a remote site.

(referencing 
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/netmgmt/configuration/guide/nm_packet_capture_ps6441_TSD_Products_Configuration_Guide_Chapter.html#wp1060070)

The concept looks pretty straightforward but since DHCP negotiation isn't IP - 
I am having trouble with building the access list to determine what traffic to 
capture.

The device I would like to perform the capture on is a 2801 and that is the 
device serving DHCP to clients at that site.

Utilization on that router is pretty low so if I *had* to capture all traffic 
on F0/0 and dump it via TFTP to the fileserver at the site - I think that might 
be a viable option? But the fileserver is connected to the switch that 
connected to F0/0 that I want to perform the capture on.

Regular DHCP debugs only show that 2 devices are continually offered IPs but 
then apparently keep re-requesting them. (So maybe I am barking up the wrong 
tree here.)

WAN----Serial-2801-F0/0----Switch------DHCP Clients and Fileserver

Any and all hints would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks much,
