Unable to start DHCP server?
« on: January 09, 2018, 03:35:28 pm »
Hi there My name is Jeen วิธีแทงบอลสเต็ป
I'd like to use PXE boot on my OPNsense box to install desktops on my network. To test this, I have a desktop connected directly to my firewalls LAN interface. While it has a static address now, it needs to be able to get a DHCP address for PXE, so I set the options on the Services -> DHCP -> Server -> LAN page as best as I know how and clicked the "Start Service" button in the upper right corner.

A dialog with the title "Please wait..." and a progress bar briefly appears then vanishes, and the status indicator is still red and showing "dhcpd Service is Stopped". I tried rebooting the firewall but that didn't help. Any idea why it's doing this and how I can find more info about it?

Please post our dhcp log output and used settings so we can reproduce / inspect. I'm pretty sure that was mentioned before in a topic that resembles yours that got no follow up... mhhh.
