Dhcp logs

Hello Dear community. Im facing with dhcp problem that one of my device doesnt get DNS servers from dhcp. So at first i though that ill try dhcp logs on XG but SURPRISINGLY  NO LOGS are available...

Is there any option to do packet trace (like wireshark shows) communication that I would see specific traffiv for dhcp:request/get/respond, to make sure that from my side XG is working fine.  Cuz this issue is related to only one machine at home.

Im using xg home latest firmware.  How this cloud be possible that XG doesnt provide logs in such important things ? Im using it since 5 years and there wasnt any improvements in that section.. im wondering how someone is troubleshooting stuff where XG is in business (production) environment ^^

Thx for your patience and understanding. ^^

  • You could simply tcpdump this traffic into a file and export this to a wireshark tool.

    tcpdump -ni any port 67 or port 68 -b -w /tmp/dump.pcap

    Then access the file via SCP (pscp.exe -scp admin@IP:/tmp/dump.pcap .\   )

  • I'll try that and let ya know later ;) what i have discoverd. While i was connecting laptop via Cable all works fine its on vlan200 but via wifi nope. Im quite sure that xg is working properly but i must have a proof ^^ my Gf is on HO and their Helpdesk guys seems to working as "did you try to turn Off and on" ?;p
