Odd lease and renewal times
I have a number of stations and printers that are renewing their leases at intervals shorter than n/2 - where N is the lease time.
[In this case, 14400s]
However if I look in dhcp.leases - the lease is written as 10m.
Huh?
I'm running a fail-over pair.
mclt is 30m
default-lease-time 14400;
max-lease-time 14400;
I can't seem to grok where the 10m lease time is coming from.
Any ideas where to look?
[Oh, and yes, as far as I can tell, only some clients are so afflicted.]
Here's a excert of leases
lease 10.1.1.148 {
starts 6 2017/10/07 00:03:39;
ends 6 2017/10/07 00:13:39;
tstp 6 2017/10/07 00:18:39;
tsfp 6 2017/10/07 00:13:37;
cltt 6 2017/10/07 00:03:39;
binding state active;
next binding state expired;
hardware ethernet 00:00:00:00:00:00;
set ddns-fwd-name = "some-stupidhost.somedom.com";
set ddns-txt = "00 ... db";
set ddns-rev-name = "148.1.1.10.in-addr.arpa.";
client-hostname "abc-hp-4200";
}
[Yeah, this is an HP printer/print-server, but some Windows clients do it too.]
---
Another random case is a Windows laptop.
It DOES get a 4h lease, but then makes DHCPREQUEST's at crazy intervals.
Sometimes it's 90m, others 90s. [I can't find any consistency...]
This is a wireless device, I believe, would it make a new request if it were dropped and re-connected to the network?
Nothing's "broken." Everything is getting leases as they should, but I'm trying to understand why.
Mostly looking for a good methodology and reasoning to start running the oddities down.
TIA
