Hi,
I was working on some routing between working LAN and DMZ when the DHCP server stopped. It auto restarted, but since then my PC has not been able to get an IP address assigned. I have manually assigned an address to see if I can locate the problem.
An extract form the DHCP server log.

I expect that I a restart of the ASG will fix the problem until next time.

Re-start didn't fix the problem. I think I have identified the cause. I was moving devices from the working LAN to the DMZ by editing their IP and bound to interface in the DHCP servers.
Tomorrow I will delete the moved devices and add them to see if this stops the DHCP server re-starting and generating the error.
