1Thank you. This was indeed the problem. I stopped the service and deleted the leases file. After restarting the server, I zeroed the switch and rebooted. It was vended the expected address. This makes sense but I couldn't rule out my config. Before this project, it had been many years since I'd configured dhcpd, and I'd never done anything this complicated.Andrew Falanga– Andrew Falanga2017-11-28 22:29:37 +00:00Commented Nov 28, 2017 at 22:29

@AndrewFalanga This is a though one for people caught unaware...I had to forbid people having a floating dynamic IP address to conveniently configure new printers before they were "officially" provisioned.

thanks for the heads up. The application I have may not require this, but I'll keep it in mind.Andrew Falanga– Andrew Falanga2017-11-28 23:01:38 +00:00Commented Nov 28, 2017 at 23:01

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
