Re: [Astlinux-users] Turning of DHCP logging

[Michael K. <mic...@ip...>]

Thanks Lonnie. Yes there does seem to be a problem as I do get the standard lease obtained logs:
Nov  2 06:54:54 30590-Canb_Comm-CM1 daemon.err udhcpc[358]: sending renew to 103.55.93.1
Nov  2 06:54:54 30590-Canb_Comm-CM1 daemon.err udhcpc[358]: lease of 103.55.93.92 obtained, lease time 300

It does not have this error from the same provider on other broadband types. Do you have any idea what it could be?

Normally you would see 3 or 4 of those logs before DHCP client was successful.


After many "sending discover" udhcpc will drop to the background and continue. Possibly DHCP is acquired after 30 seconds or so?


For local networks, this is not normal. You can't disable the logs as there should not be an endless stream of them.
