Hi Rick

No, DHCP is provided by an external appliance.
Thanks for answering !

Hi,

Is your DHCP server a VM running on the same host? I've seem some
strange issues where a VM could not obtain a DHCP lease if it was
running on the same physical machine as the client. If this is the case,
I can look up what I had to change, otherwise ignore it.

Regards,

Rik
