Logically isolated VPNs with MPLS - Centralized DHCP

It is a minimal config:


stash-agent-options true;

shared-network LabNet {

# LABNET Wireless Class
class "wifi-dev" {
match if option agent.circuit-id="020c020a00000a20";
lease limit 10;
                 }

subnet 10.200.17.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {}

#Create a new pool for each class.
subnet 10.32.166.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
   option routers 10.32.166.1;
   option broadcast-address 10.32.166.255;
        pool {
        allow members of "wifi-dev";
        range 10.32.166.44 10.32.166.53;
             }

The only thing from the logs:

Oct 23 22:48:23 sea-securid-1 last message repeated 5 times
Oct 23 22:53:49 sea-securid-1 dhcpd: [ID 702911 local7.error] DHCPDISCOVER

---------------
The 10.32.166.1 interface is in the VRF on the same router 10.32.0.22
That has the relay agent.
The 10.200.17.0 subnet is where central DHCP server lives.

The ISC package will handle that - it doesn't 
really care how the packet gets to it. But bear 
in mind that you will need to have unique subnet 
addresses across the entire network served by a 
single DHCP server.

Then you'd best post the relevant parts of the config and logs.
