Hi Andrew,
Thanks for getting back to me. This problem has been driving me nuts.
I'm a bit surprised, though, with the first thing you said regarding
configuring the ip helper-address command on R5 to point to the dhcp server
address on R1.
I thought the command, ip dhcp-server <ip addr> does the same thing as ip
helper <ip addr> except it's more specific ie it only forwards dhcp requests
rather than all the things forwarded by the ip helper-address command. Is
my understanding of this wrong? Or, is there a different issue with using
this command - maybe something specific to how cisco implements PPP?
Regarding the other command you mentioned, ip address-pool
dhcp-proxy-client, I looked that up on the Doc-CD, but honestly, I don't
really understand if or why this command is needed. This is what the Doc-CD
says about this command.
"To enable an address pooling mechanism used to supply IP addresses to
dial-in asynchronous, synchronous, or ISDN point-to-point interfaces, use
the ip address-pool command in global configuration mode."
It seems to be implying that dhcp won't work without an "address pooling
mechanism". Actually, I guess I don't understand what the heck are they
talking about? Is dhcp an "address pooling mechanism"? So, if you could
translate into English what they're saying, I'd be really, really grateful.
Obviously, these various ip address mechanisms are about as clear as mud to
me. And, I thougth I understood DHCP. Well, I guess not. But, thank you
for confirming for me that R4, in fact, wasn't getting a dhcp assigned
address.
From the debug dhcp output below, how can you tell that R5 isn't forwarding
a dhcp request to R1 (as opposed to not receiving a response from R1), or
are you deducing that's what going on because of the following lines, for
example or what you're NOT seeing in the debug output ?
*Mar 1 07:08:42.478: DHCP Lease server: 0.0.0.0, state: 1 Selecting
*Mar 1 07:08:42.478: DHCP transaction id: FCC10C
*Mar 1 07:08:42.478: Lease: 0 secs, Renewal: 0 secs, Rebind: 0
I apologize for all the questions, but my lab is next week and I'm kind of
nervous.
Thanks again, Tim

My thoughts....
On R5, you need ip helper-address to R1.
R5 is connecting to R4 on the callback but the DHCP lease is not being
negotiated. R5 see's the R4 request but it can't do anything with it...
So, get R5 to encapsulate (unicast) and forward the local link broadcast
from R4 for a DHCP Lease Request. Once you see NCP on the BRI link
negotiate the Network Control Protocol address received from R1 you will
get connectivity at layer 3 between r4 and r5.
Alternatively, if you want to specify the IP address of the DHCP server,
you will need to use the global ip address-pool dhcp-proxy-client
command to specify that R5 should proxy DHCP requests on behalf of
locally connected clients. Two ways to do the same thing.... One being
more efficient (I think the later).
HTH,
andy

Hey guys,
In the isdn portion of this task, I needed to configure dialer profiles
on both R4 and R5, have R5 call R4 and then make R4 hangup and callback
R5. I got this part to work. To confirm that this was working I used,
isdn test call int bri 0/0 5272034 and enabled debug dialer on R4. When
I reviewed the debug logs, I could see the call from R5 connect, then
disconnect and then R4 callback R5.
However, I also needed to configure R4 to get it's dialer's interface ip
address from a dhcp server directly connected to R5.
I also enabled debug dhcp on R4 and R5, but I can't tell from the debug
out what's really going on. So, I don't know if R4 ever really got an ip
address.
I've configured R4 and R5 as shown is the SG, but the dhcp part doesn't
seem to working, although I'm not 100% sure. Once the link was up after
R4 called back R5, I did several pings but those never were successful.
I was struggling with this for hours but never got pings to work across
the isdn link, so I'm hoping someone can help me understand what's going
on.
Here's some output from deb dhcp on R5:

I also did a deb dhcp on R1, the dhcp server, but got nothing at all.
Here's R4's config. R4 is the dhcp client and is suppose to get an ip
address assigned to it dialer interface.
interface Dialer1
ip address negotiated
encapsulation ppp
dialer pool 1
dialer string 5272035
dialer caller 5272035 callback
Here's R5's config:
ip dhcp-server 139.3.15.1
interface Dialer1
ip address 139.3.45.5 255.255.255.0
encapsulation ppp
dialer pool 1
dialer string 5272034
dialer-group 1
peer default ip address dhcp
Here's R1's config. R1 is the dhcp server.
ip dhcp excluded-address 139.3.45.5 139.3.45.255
ip dhcp excluded-address 139.3.45.0 139.3.45.3
!
ip dhcp pool FOR-R4
network 139.3.45.0 255.255.255.0
Here's the topology:
R4 --- isdn ---- R5 --- f/r --- R1
I'm not running any routing protocols, but R5 and R1 can ping each
other.
R5 can call R4. When it does, R4 takes the call, hangup, and calls R5
back. But, once the call is connected, R4 and R5 still can't ping each
other. A debug on R5 shows the pings are "unroutable". I don't know
why since, of course, R4 and R5 are directly connected via the isdn
link.
Can anybody help me understand what's going on here with dhcp and the
ping problem?
Thanks for any insight.
Tim
