Hi All -

I'm seeing the following on my DHCP server:

Code:
Sep 14 10:28:55 elroy dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 30:85:a9:12:e5:8e via 10.45.0.1
Sep 14 10:28:56 elroy dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 10.45.244.230 to 30:85:a9:12:e5:8e (Gino-PC) via 10.45.0.1
Sep 14 10:28:56 elroy dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for 10.45.244.230 (10.2.3.4) from 30:85:a9:12:e5:8e (Gino-PC) via 10.45.0.1
Sep 14 10:28:56 elroy dhcpd: DHCPACK on 10.45.244.230 to 30:85:a9:12:e5:8e (Gino-PC) via 10.45.0.1
Sep 14 10:28:56 elroy dhcpd: Abandoning IP address 10.45.244.230: declined.
Sep 14 10:28:56 elroy dhcpd: DHCPDECLINE of 10.45.244.230 from 30:85:a9:12:e5:8e (Gino-PC) via 10.45.0.1: not found

This is just one instance...but it seems to be happening to quite a few people. Not sure what could be causing this issue.

Any insight?
 
Is there a secondary DHCP server running on the network offering addresses in the same range? That might account for the clients abandoning an address ( request the address, receive it, do an arp check prior to assignment, finds it active on the network, declines address assignment ).

Are you running 10.45.0.0/16?
 
Sorry to resurrect a sleeping thread, but I encountered this recently and found out that it was when using Cisco IP helper to forward DHCP requests in addition to having proxy arp turned on.
