When they bring up a new machine and do dhcp, it takes about 45 seconds to get the new IP. I'm convinced most of the time is the switches playing games trying to figure out the most efficient way to connect the newly introduced machine to the dhcp server.
Isn't that any easy problem to solve? Whichever switch the new machine is connected to just looks in its tables and asks "how did I send traffic to <the dhcp server> last time somebody asked me?" The answer doesn't depend in any way on there being a new machine. But I'm no expert, so perhaps I'll learn something! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
