<div>
Yes the DHCP server is authorised.

We are trying to setup a new guest network at a remote site and would like to use a DHCP server at our central site. <br />
<br />
Here is the IP setup:<br />
<br />
<u>Remote Site:<br />
</u><br />
IP Range 10.15.0.0/16<br />
Default Gateway: 10.15.0.1/16<br />
<br />
<br />
<u>Central Site:<br />
</u><br />
Windows 2008r2 DHCP Server: 10.41.1.2/24<br />
Default Gateway: 10.41.1.240<br />
<br />
<br />
There has been a DHCP Relay configured on the router at the remote site and firewall rules to match. <br />
<br />
We can see the &quot;DHCP Discover&quot; when using WireShark on the DHCP server, but the server does not send any response.<br />
The scope has been configured correctly (triple checked) and the Wireshark capture seems to look like there is at least partial connectivity. <br />
<br />
Is there something I am missing here, such as a DHCP relay configuration at the central site in order to send the traffic back? <br />
Or have a missed something special on the DHCP server? <br />
<br />
This particular DHCP server handles around 10 scopes, but all for the same site, with the DHCP Relay handled by the Layer 3 switches. <br />
<br />
Your help would be greatly appreciated!

DHCP not responding to Discover Messages

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is an auto configuration protocol used on IP networks and an extension of the Bootstrap Protocol. DHCP allows for computers to be configured automatically to communicate with each other over an IP network without the need for manual setup by a network administrator. The implementation of DHCP relies on a DHCP server to hand out network configuration information to DHCP-capable clients that request an IP address (and other information required or useful in communicating with other devices on an IP network). In addition to an IP address, common configuration information served over DHCP includes a default gateway, subnet mask and DNS sever(s).

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.
