NITIALIZATION

Regardless of whether or not the Proxy Client has been enabled via configuration, some
initialization processing is always performed. If this initialization is successful, there should not be
any warnings/errors written to the report log by the DHCP Proxy Client.

1.

Examine the report log. Type:

dr

The

dr

[DHCP-P]

3.

The following message indicate that errors occurred during DHCP Proxy Client initialization
processing:

If you do NOT see this message in the report log, the DHCP Proxy Client has successfully
performed its initialization processing.

4.

If you DO receive an initialization failed message, the DHCP Proxy Client will not operate
correctly. Contact your Distributor or Customer Support.
