Run the Server in Debug Mode

  1. Log in to the root account on a DHCP server on the same subnet as the client.

  2. Kill and restart the DHCP server in debug mode. For example:


    /etc/init.d/dhcp stop
    /usr/lib/inet/in.dhcpd -d -v
    
    Or, if the i option is present, enter the command in the following format:

    /usr/lib/inet/in.dhcpd -i interface_names -d -v
