Hi All,
I notice dnsmasq.conf has an option specific to Win 7.
# Send an empty WPAD option. This may be REQUIRED to get windows 7 to behave.
#dhcp-option=252,"\n"
Is this limited to DHCP or applies for DHCPv6 too ? Would it affect,
if I enable this and my DHCP(v6) server is serving both Win and Linux
hosts?
My actual issue is my Win 7 dhcpv6 host fails at times to receive
valid IPv6 address.
The DHCPv6 eventvwr log contains:
Your computer was not assigned an address from the network (by the
DHCP Server) for the Network Card with network address "(mac
address)". The following error occurred: 0x79. Your computer will
continue to try and obtain an address on its own from the network
address (DHCP) server.
&
"An error occurred in plumbing the parameters into stack. Status Code is 0x57."
Regards,
Tom
