1. Fault Phenomenon: After enabling DHCP Snooping on the NBS switch, the following anomalies occurred: End point cannot obtain IP address The end point has obtained an address assigned by an illegal DHCP server DHCP Binding Table not generated or abnormal Specific ports cannot forward DHCP packets Key Point: Is DHCP Snooping globally enabled? Is the Trusted Port configured? Is there an illegal DHCP server? Whether to enable related functions such as IP Source Guard? 2. Analysis of the Problem Cause According to the content of the Knowledge Base, possible causes include: Trusted port not configured : The port connected to the legitimate DHCP server was not set as a trusted port, resulting in the blocking of legitimate DHCP responses. Unauthorized DHCP Server Exists: An unauthorized DHCP server is still running on the network. Function Conflict: IP Source Protection is enabled while DHCP Binding Table is not configured. Version Limitation: Older firmware versions have DHCP Snooping compatibility issues. Port mode error: Access port fails to correctly allow VLAN traffic. 3. Troubleshooting Steps and Solutions Step 1: Verify the basic configuration Path: Project > Device Config> DHCP Snooping ![]() Confirm Global DHCP Snooping is enabled Set the port connected to a legitimate DHCP server astrusted port(usually the uplink port) Non-trusted ports (ports connected to end points) remain in the default non-trusted state Step 2: Troubleshoot illegal DHCP servers Detection Method :Capture packets on the untrusted port of the switch to check if DHCP responses from the untrusted port are receivedUse AI diagnosis to detect DHCP conflicts in the network ![]() ![]() Or enable DHCP Snooping blocking in bulk via the cloud: Step 3: Check the configuration of the associated function IP Source Protection Dependency Relationship: If IP source protection is enabled, the DHCP Snooping binding table must be generated first Path: Project >Device Config> Ip Source Guard ![]() ![]() Confirm that the VLAN where the end point is located has been allowed to pass through the port Step 4: Firmware Version Upgrade Log in to the Web interface to check the version: If the version is lower than ReyeeOS 2.340, it is necessary to upgrade to the latest version to resolve known compatibility issues ![]() |
