    All,

    Having a problem - changed out existing router for a Cisco 870.
    I have set up WAN port for DHCP on FastEthernet4.

    Port comes up - but the CISCO can't get an IP address.

    SDM reports that there is no DHCP server responding.

    Is there any know problems - have the new UPC modem on site.

    Dont have a copy of the config handy - will try and get it later

    Any Ideas?


    think the config line on the port was was like

    ip address dhcp client-id FastEthernet4


    Thanks,

    Do you have any ACL's on fa4 that could be blocking DHCP traffic?

    ...just checked - only saved a local copy of the config to the laptop before I started!

    I will post up configs tonight

    thanks

    turned off firewall etc

    still can get an ip address

    FastEthernet4 config below

    interface FastEthernet4
    description $ES_WAN$$FW_OUTSIDE$
    ip address dhcp client-id FastEthernet4
    ip access-group 101 in
    no ip redirects
    no ip unreachables
    no ip proxy-arp
    ip nat outside
    ip inspect DEFAULT100 out
    ip virtual-reassembly
    ip route-cache flow
    duplex auto
    speed auto
    no cdp enable


    Anyone any help?

    Tried shutting down the interface, powering down the upc modem for 30 seconds, powering the modem back on and then bringing the interface back up on the router?

    Anyone any help?
    Can you post the contents of ACL 101, i.e. all the statements starting with "access-list 101 permit/deny ..." and all the ip inspect statements such as "ip inspect name DEFAULT100 <protocol name>".

    Guys,

    Thanks,

    It was firewall - not allowing DHCP through - had the entry in - but not for 101

    Working now
