Log in to the root account on a Solaris server or BOOTP/DHCP relay agent on the same subnet as the client.
Use the snoop command to trace network traffic. For example:
snoop -o /tmp/output udp port 67 or udp port 68 |
Boot the client and watch the DHCP message exchange between the client and server(s).
Type:
snoop -i /tmp/output -x 0 -v |
You can limit the scope of snoop by specifying the client's hardware address. A version of snoop that understands the DHCP/BOOTP protocols is available in Solaris version 2.5 and later.
