DHCP Server not sending offers!

Ok Maarten, I will look at this.

In fact I'm not the one who set the "range dynamic-bootp" clausure, I guess
the clients are using dhcp and bootp is not really required.

But please, I know bootp is an old protocol, but I din't know the impact of
using this clausure. I would like if possible to have a link where the
difference between the two clausures is explained, and the impact of using
"range dynamic-bootp" in lease offers.

I will try investigating this way. Thanks.

Regards,
Eugène NG
