## Symptoms

- * /var/log/messages file shows:

  cpfw1 dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on Mgmt to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 8   
  cpfw1 dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on Mgmt to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 12  
  cpfw1 dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on Mgmt to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 14   
  cpfw1 dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on Mgmt to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 19   
  cpfw1 dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on Mgmt to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 8   
  cpfw1 dhclient: No DHCPOFFERS received.  
  cpfw1 dhclient: No working leases in persistent database - sleeping  
  .
* The '/config/db/initial' file shows **that DHCP Relay is configured, but DHCP Server is not running**:

  dhcp:dhcpc:interface:Mgmt t  
  dhcp:dhcpc:interface:Mgmt:timeout 60  
  dhcp:dhcpc:interface:Mgmt:retry 300  
  dhcp:dhcpc:interface:Mgmt:reboot 10  
  interface:Mgmt:ipaddr:W.X.Y.Z t  
  interface:Mgmt:ipaddr: W.X.Y.Z :mask 24 interface:Mgmt:ipaddr: W.X.Y.Z :mask 24

## Cause

DHCP Relay is configured, but DHCP Server is not running.

Since no DHCP Offers are received, RouteD daemon "thinks" that the IP address of the "Mgmt" interface is **X.W.Y.Z/32** , instead of **X.W.Y.Z/24**

This makes RouteD think that the interface is a Point-to-Point interface, which it is not.
