Depending on the server configuration, if a client moves to a different subnet, it
may need to timeout the current IP address (approx. 30 seconds) and then
restart the DHCP sequence. During this process the client may use the
standard default IP address for Microsoft Windows (169.254.X.X).
Example
/interface/wifi-2-1# show clients
disc Client has sent a DHCP Discover message and is waiting for a
DHCP Offer message to get its IP address.
(Applicable only if client does not already have a valid IP address.
Otherwise client sends DHCP Request message.)
offer Server has responded to the DHCP Discover message with a
DHCP Offer message. This packet tells the client its IP address.
The client should then send a DHCP Request message to verify the
IP address.
req Client has sent the DHCP Request message to the server and is
waiting for a DHCP Ack message to confirm the assigned IP
address.
decl Server has declined the client’s DHCP request. Verify the server
settings.
ack Client has sent a DHCP Request message and the server has
confirmed the assigned IP address.
(a * appended to the value indicates a completed DHCP process.)
nack Server has responded to the client’s DHCP request with a DHCP
Nack message. Verify the server settings.
relse Client has sent a DHCP Release message.
inform Client has sent a DHCP Inform message. Depending on the server,
the server may respond with a DHCP Ack message.
(a * appended to the value indicates a completed DHCP process.)
arpRes Client has gone through one of the DHCP state transitions and
replied to an ARP request for its IP address.
(a * appended to the value indicates a completed DHCP process.)
