Routing / VLAN issue

Hi,

I am hoping this is a simple solve.

2 issues:

  1. Client A is unable to get a DHCP address from the DHCP Server.
  2. Sophos cannot PING DHCP Server using eth4 Interface.

However setting a STATIC IP on Client A allows communication to DHCP Server.

Quick rundown:

  • Sophos ETH4
    • Ethernet VLAN Interface (58)
  • Switch Port 12
    • Setup as TRUNK
  • Switch Port 10
    • Setup as VLAN58

Does Switch Port 30 need to be setup as a TRUNK?

  • Hi and welcome to the UTM Community!

    1. PC 1 is in an Ethernet segment separate from the DHCP server, so it can't get DHCP unless you configure a relay.
    2. Pinging is regulated on the 'ICMP' tab of 'Firewall'.  The "Ping" Service is not included in the "Any" Service.  "Any" only includes TCP and UDP, not any of the other IP Protocols.

    If you're still having a problem, what does doing #1 in Rulz tell us?

    Cheers - Bob

  • Hi Balfson 

     

    You can create a DHCP relay on the SG Firewall
    Go to Network Services > DHCP > DHCP Relay

    Select your DHCP server and the interface in client A network

     

    Best regards

  • Hi,

    Thanks for the feedback.

    1. a DHCP relay has been setup on the UTM already (as per the red DHCP Relay shown in the image)
    2. All pinging on the ICMP tab is enabled, which is why i thought it may be a routing / VLAN issue

    Nothing is shown in the logs.

    Thanks

  • Then it does sound like an issue with your switch or DHCP server, but, just to completely eliminate the UTM's configuration, please show pictures of the 'DHCP Relay Configuration' and the Edits of the Interfaces used in that configuration.

    Cheers - Bob

  • DHCP Relay:

    Employee LAN (VLAN58):

     

    Thanks

  • I believe that the network containing the DHCP server must also be included in the Relay definition.
