DHCP relay on a 2626

[red5.1992]

Hi everybody and happy new year

i have a procurve2626 with no 802.1q on it
this is a end user switch, i use it only as basic layer 2 switch
the switch above has several vlans, and its uplink port is of course untagged for this vlans.

i have a problem with the DHCP broadcast on it. It doesn't relay the frames...
my dhcp server is on the same vlan as the users connected on the switch

here is the conf of my switch

hostname "FRxxNETxx"
snmp-server contact "xxx"

thanks very much for your help !

If the server is also on this switch there is nothing that can block it. Take a look at the dhcp server.

To be honest can not see any problem with this configuration.
You have to look outside this switch.

thanks very for your reply

yes that's what i think but it's weird...

i'll see on my server, which i already did, but i'll double check

i found out,

i had to setup the ip helper on my core switch.

and it worked, what it didn't explain is, it used to work before...
