Debugging DHCP Client Operation
To enable debug messages for DHCP client operation, enter the following debug commands:
• Enable the display of log messages for all DHCP packets sent and received on DHCP client interfaces.
EXEC Privilege
[no] debug ip dhcp client packets [interface type slot/port]
• Enable the display of log messages for the following events on DHCP client interfaces: IP address acquisition, IP address release,
Renewal of IP address and lease time, and Release of an IP address.
EXEC Privilege
[no] debug ip dhcp client events [interface type slot/port]
The following example shows the packet- and event-level debug messages displayed for the packet transmissions and state transitions on a
DHCP client interface.
