Unable to renew the lease with DHCP


Hi,

I am having the problem something related to routing (I guess).

My problem goes below:

I am using FC13.

I am having 2 Internet lines both from the same ISP. One line is with DHCP and the other is with Static.

Both lines works fine for sometime. But when it comes to renew the DHCP IP I can see in the "ip route show cache" that the renew request is going from the second line in return sending only unicast messages to DHCP Server and after sometime sending the broadcast messages without renewing the IP.

What can be done? Is there any alternative with iptables?

The first issue is that you are using fedora 13
It is 5 versions out of date
Has not received any security updates sense it went EOL on " 2011-06-04"

try
Code:
su -
ifconfig 
-------- then from the output , if "eth 0 & 1" apply -----
ifdown eth0 
ifdown eth1 
------- then ----------
ifup eth0

Hi John,

Thanks for your reply and kind suggestion.

But one thing I forgot to mentioned that the device running for the Internet Sharing using Squid and both lines are in Load Balancing so I cannot bring down the Interfaces.

Only while there is a problem I need to reset the DHCP Interface and again configure it.

I think there might be problem with Load Balance (Wild Guess).
