Priscilla,
Well, it�s been an interesting project. Unfortunately, the DHCP server app
that I wound up trying (Vicomsoft) was so buggy that I couldn�t keep it from
crashing. Even when it was running, it was highly, highly unstable.
Granted, it was a demo, but I would think a demo would have basic
functionality.
Furthermore, I couldn�t get into the console port of the 2900XL. Tried
everything. The darned port is fried.
So�here is what I came up with:
2621
|
| <--100Mb/s dot1q trunk
|
Foundry Networks switch
| |
| | <--100Mb/s access ports
| |
DHCP Serv DHCP Client
The 2621, with 64M of memory and 8M of flash, is running 12.1-18 IP Plus. I
don�t know much about the Foundry switch. It was straight out of the box
just yesterday. I configured it with a dot1q trunk to the router, an access
port in vlan 100 (192.168.1.0/24), and an access port in vlan 200
(192.168.2.0/24). The server (192.168.1.100) was attached to VLAN 100 and
the client (192.168.2.?) to vlan 200. The router subinterfaces were the .1
address. Subinterface F0/0.2 had an IP helper address of 192.168.1.100.
On a couple of occasions I moved the client to vlan 100. The server did
actually work two or three times with a local client. It never once worked
with a non-local client. The good news is that the DHCP Discovery crossed
the vlans via the 2621 and looked to be in pretty good shape:

I�m convinced it was the server app. So if someone can point me to a better
one, I�ll just bet this will work fine. I didn�t think to try it without IP
Plus. Would you like me to? The truth is, trunking support/functionality
seems to be on a case-by-case basis where the 2600s are concerned.
