Description

Just upgraded to to NanoBSD release from a previous 2.x RC version.

When it reboots, it comes up okay, but clients are unable to get a DHCP lease.
DHCP service shows as stopped in status -> services.

Trying to restart thows this into the logs:

php: /status_services.php: The command '/usr/local/sbin/dhcpd -user dhcpd -group _dhcp -chroot /var/dhcpd -cf /etc/dhcpd.conf bridge0' returned exit code '1', the output was 'Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Server 4.2.1-P1 Copyright 2004-2011 Internet Systems Consortium.

The IP of the bridged interface isand always has been 172.16.1.1

And the DHCP server range configured is 172.16.1.10 - 172.16.1.199

If I go into the interface configuration, do not change anything but click "Save" followed by Apply Changes,
the DHCP service starts successfully.

Look in /var/run/*.pid - see if there are any stale (old) pid files. It's possible something else is getting a killbypid() of a stale file there and dhcpd just happens to have that pid now.

This gives me a thought.. I will try to reboot and see what these states and and dhcpd.conf looks like before I do the save interface settings and apply.

Hmm, okay.

After reboot, the SSH admin reports wrong IP address for INSIDE (bridge0) but web interface
reports what I set, (172.16.1.1)

The actual interface config looks like:

bridge0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
ether f2:b3:bc:18:fe:d1
inet 10.10.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.10.1.255

ifmaxaddr 0 port 9 priority 128 path cost 370370
member: vr1 flags=143<LEARNING,DISCOVER,AUTOEDGE,AUTOPTP>
ifmaxaddr 0 port 2 priority 128 path cost 55

After I click "Save" and "Apply Changes" in the web GUI, the two addresses flip round:

bridge0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
ether f2:b3:bc:18:fe:d1
inet 172.16.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 172.16.1.255
inet 10.10.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.10.1.255

ifmaxaddr 0 port 3 priority 128 path cost 55

ifmaxaddr 0 port 9 priority 128 path cost 370370
member: vr1 flags=143<LEARNING,DISCOVER,AUTOEDGE,AUTOPTP>
ifmaxaddr 0 port 2 priority 128 path cost 55

After rummaging around in the config, it would appear there is an ifalias set for 10.10.1.1

I see the same issue trying to run DHCP on an interface with an alias. Removing the alias gets everything working again. I imagine it's owing to the order in which pfSense adds the address information to the interface. The alias address should come last I'm guessing.

There was some work to solve a similar issue with ordering and aliases on 2.1 recently, worth trying there, it's likely fixed now.
