Output Fields
Field Name
Field Description
Packets dropped
Number of packets discarded by
the extended DHCP local server because of errors. Only nonzero statistics
appear in the Packets dropped output. When all of the Packets dropped
statistics are 0 (zero), only the Total field appears.
Total—Total number of packets discarded
by the extended DHCP local server
Bad hardware address—Number of packets
discarded because an invalid hardware address was specified
Bad opcode—Number of packets discarded
because an invalid operation code was specified
Bad options—Number of packets discarded
because invalid options were specified
Invalid server address—Number of packets
discarded because an invalid server address was specified
No available addresses—Number of packets
discarded because there were no addresses available for assignment
No interface match—Number of packets discarded
because they did not belong to a configured interface
No routing instance match—Number of packets
discarded because they did not belong to a configured routing instance
No valid local address—Number of packets
discarded because there was no valid local address
Packet too short—Number of packets discarded
because they were too short
Read error—Number of packets discarded
because of a system read error
Send error—Number of packets that the extended
DHCP local server could not send
Messages received
Number of DHCP messages received.
BOOTREQUEST—Number of BOOTP protocol data
units (PDUs) received
DHCPDECLINE—Number of DHCP PDUs of type
DECLINE received
DHCPDISCOVER—Number of DHCP PDUs of type
DISCOVER received
DHCPINFORM—Number of DHCP PDUs of type
INFORM received
DHCPRELEASE—Number of DHCP PDUs of type
RELEASE received
DHCPREQUEST—Number of DHCP PDUs of type
REQUEST received
Messages sent
