DFL-800 multiple DHCP address on one MAC address
« on: January 16, 2013, 01:15:28 AM »

Hi there, my DHCP server on my DFL-800 is showing many address leases to one MAC address.  The MAC address in question belongs to my Windows Home Server.  Any reason this is happening or how I can correct it?  Thanks

Looks strange...
I have no Windows Home Server, but all others OS (Windows Server/Professional/Home) never had such problem.
Try to dump traffic via Wireshark (on PC) and pcapdump (on DFL).
Also, logs from Windows are very interested - why it want to ackowledge new IP.

Do you have any virtual machines configured on the server? Seems more like a server issue then router issue.

Also found this.

danilovav and hard harry, thanks for your replies.  The Windows Home Server is not acting like a DNS server, DFL-800 currently has a DNS relay setup for use with Dyn Internet Guide.  I'll give your suggestions a go and get back in a few days to see how I went.

OK, I may have had a fix.  Disabled the DHCP client on the server, no need for a server to be assigned DHCP addresses.  Now my firewall DHCP leases only have 3 addresses, not 15.

Thanks
