Nope - got a cat3560 doing nothing at all really - just one vlan - no qos - 
nothing crazy at all.

Clients aren't locked down either (even had the terminals set to factory 
defaults with DHCP)

 And from the switch side - no errors or flaps. And the trouble is the clients 
in question don't ever fully complete the DHCP transaction upon power up to 
assign an ip - so they can't connect -but if I assign an IP manually on the 
client - then they can connect right up to Citrix servers.

That's why I figured get a packet capture to look at.

Thanks,

-Jeff

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

Is the switch in the middle doing anything 'funky', or just pretty bog standard?
Are the clients configured to accept any dhcp response, or are they locked down 
in any way?

If the ethernet port is flapping according to the client, it may make new 
requests when the link comes back up each time..
If a client sees a gratuitous arp or packet from another host with the same IP 
address, it may drop the lease and request a new one..

It sounds like it works though, they get the IP, but just keep asking when they 
don't need to (before dhcp lease expiry) ??
