DHCP conflict logging: the true story

The on-line configuration help for the ip dhcp conflict logging configuration command (logging: Record address conflicts in a log file) is one of the more misleading texts I've found in Cisco IOS (and the CCO documentation is not much better). Here's how it actually works ...

If you have configured ip dhcp ping parameters (highly recommended), the router will ping the IP address it intends to allocate to a client before replying to the DHCP request. If the router receives ICMP Echo Reply message (response to ping), the address is obviously in use. If the DHCP conflict logging is enabled (default), the router will log the conflict with a syslog message (not in a separate log file) and put the address on the list of conflicts. The addresses on that list (displayed with show ip dhcp conflict) are not used in the future (similar to the addresses configured with the ip dhcp excluded-addresses command). To reuse a conflicting address, the network operator has to remove it from the list with the clear ip dhcp conflict address (or * for all addresses) command.

The DHCP conflict logging makes sense if the router uses persistent DHCP bindings (called DHCP database agents in Cisco IOS), otherwise any addresses allocated prior to a router reload would be reported as conflicts after the bindings are lost. If you don't use DHCP agents, it's thus best to turn off conflict logging with the no ip dhcp conflict logging configuration command. Even without conflict logging, there's no DHCP functionality loss and no chance of duplicate address allocation, as the router would still check whether an IP address is active before allocating it (and later on, it would be willing to re-check the conflicting IP address).

If you don't use DHCP database agents and you don't disable conflict logging (default setup), you'll have to clear the conflicts manually after a reload and you might potentially exhaust the DHCP pool because of a large number of blocked conflicting addresses.

Ubiquiti UniFi – Ejecute el controlador como un servicio de Windows

Ubiquiti UniFi – Ejecute el controlador como un servicio de Windows CopyRigth : http://soporte.syscom.mx/es/articles/1743759-ubiquiti-unifi-ejecute-el-controlador-como-un-servicio-de-windows Redactado por Nancy Covarrubias Alarcon Actualizado hace más de una semana Los lectores aprenderán cómo ejecutar el software del controlador UniFi como un servicio de Windows. Los servicios de Windows suelen ser útiles ya que son aplicaciones de “fondo” que no requieren atención del usuario final. De esta forma, el servicio se lanzará al inicio, sin intervención del usuario. El servicio es un reemplazo / sustituto directo para ejecutar el programa del controlador manualmente (a través del ícono o una tarea programada), por lo que no es necesario ejecutar la aplicación del controlador si lo está ejecutando como un servicio de Windows.

Configuring an EX2200 Virtual Chassis

Configuring an EX2200 Virtual Chassis (CLI Procedure) date_range 23-Sep-19 info_outline Platform and Release Support You configure an EX2200 Virtual Chassis by configuring interfaces connecting EX2200 switches into Virtual Chassis ports (VCPs). Optical interfaces on EX2200 and EX2200-C switches can be configured into VCPs and can be used to connect EX2200 switches into a Virtual Chassis over short and long distances (up to 49.7 miles). All RJ-45 interfaces, including built-in network ports with 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet connectors and 1000BASE-T RJ-45 transceivers, on EX2200 and EX2200-C switches can also be configured into VCPs. An EX2200 Virtual Chassis can be configured with either: A preprovisioned configuration—You can deterministically control the member ID and role assigned to a member switch by tying it to its serial number. A nonprovisioned configuration—The master sequentially assigns a member ID to other member switches. The role is dete...

  Switch boots from backup root partition after file system corruption occured on the primary root partition   Copyright Summary: This article describes the issue when an EX Switch booting from the backup root partition after a file corruption occured on the primary root partition. Symptoms: EX switches running Junos 10.4R3 or later have added resiliency based on the "resilient dual-root partition", which if the switch detects a corruption on the primary root file system, it boots from the alternate root partition. When this occurs, you are notified in two ways: Alarm and Warning Banner Alarm: The following alarm message is generated: user@switch> show chassis alarms 1 alarms currently active Alarm time Class Description 2011-02-17 05:48:49 PST Minor Host 0 Boot from backup root Warning: **************************************************************************************** ** ** ** WARNING: THIS DEVICE H...
