I have m0n0wall set up with DHCP on the WAN interface. This way, I am able to get a static ip from my ISP, but for some reason dhclient is always trying to get a new lease with different and (very) short lease times:
Oct 28 14:05:26 dhclient: bound to 81.*.*.* -- renewal in 2748 seconds. Oct 28 14:05:26 dhclient: New Broadcast Address: 255.255.255.255 Oct 28 14:05:26 dhclient: New Network Number: 81.*.*.0 Oct 28 14:05:26 dhclient: DHCPACK from Oct 28 14:05:26 dhclient: DHCPREQUEST on sk0 to 195.*.*.* port 67 Oct 28 13:52:05 dhclient: bound to 81.*.*.* -- renewal in 801 seconds. Oct 28 13:52:05 dhclient: New Broadcast Address: 255.255.255.255 Oct 28 13:52:05 dhclient: New Network Number: 81.*.*.0 Oct 28 13:52:05 dhclient: DHCPACK from 195.*.*.* Oct 28 13:52:05 dhclient: DHCPREQUEST on sk0 to 195.*.*.* port 67 Oct 28 13:30:43 dhclient: bound to 81.*.*.* -- renewal in 1282 seconds.
etc.
I am using 1.33 (built on Wed Mar 16 12:01:51 CET 2011) Generic PC platform. The WAN NIC is an old (so I presume fully FreeBSD supported) onboard Marvell Yukon 88E8001 NIC.
Can someone tell me how I can disable these frequent DHCP renewals, e.g. by increasing the lease time?
Thanks in advance for any help
