1 month ago Thanks for helping me understand the settings interface. I mounted a USB stick on a Linux box and created the .ini file with these settings: [eth::ipv4] type=static addr=172.16.10.71 mask=255.255.255.0 gw=172.16.10.253
[network] dns4=10.48.96.37
Next, I used Settings > System > Load Settings from File. The printer loaded the settings, but indicated the connection failed. Both ping of gateway and dns showed 100% packet loss.
At this point, I started to suspect something else was going on. I brought out my NetTool Pro and observed that the link was going up and down at about a 5 second interval.
Long story short, the house cable was installed a long time ago and even though it was CAT5, it was not properly pinned for EIA-568A/B. When I configured the link for 10-BaseT, it worked fine. Re terminating both ends of the house cable got the speeds to 1000-BaseT.
Bottom line, the printer works fine, will accept either DHCP or a statically configured address. This was completely the fault of the house wiring.
Please close this case as USER ERROR. I will also request close of #4234.

Describe the bug
Ethernet Does not accept address offered by DHCP server:Oct 02 19:35:21 snow.tylerent.com dhcpd[1093402]: DHCPDISCOVER from 10:9c:70:22:24:be via enp0s25 Oct 02 19:35:21 snow.tylerent.com dhcpd[1093402]: DHCPOFFER on 10.48.96.52 to 10:9c:70:22:24:be via enp0s25
The XL does not respond to the DHCPOFFER.
I am unable to use wireless for security reasons.
No other packets are being sent by the printer: tcpdump -vv -i enp0s25 ether host 10:9c:70:22:24:be dropped privs to tcpdump tcpdump: listening on enp0s25, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), snapshot length 262144 bytes 19:58:07.378512 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 255, id 2, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 336) 0.0.0.0.bootpc > 255.255.255.255.bootps: [udp sum ok] BOOTP/DHCP, Request from 10:9c:70:22:24:be (oui Unknown), length 308, xid 0x21625adf, Flags [none] (0x0000) Client-Ethernet-Address 10:9c:70:22:24:be (oui Unknown) Vendor-rfc1048 Extensions Magic Cookie 0x63825363 DHCP-Message (53), length 1: Discover MSZ (57), length 2: 1500 Parameter-Request (55), length 4: Subnet-Mask (1), Default-Gateway (3), BR (28), Domain-Name-Server (6) 19:58:07.378650 IP (tos 0x10, ttl 128, id 0, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 328) snow.tylerent.com.bootps > 10.48.96.52.bootpc: [udp sum ok] BOOTP/DHCP, Reply, length 300, xid 0x21625adf, Flags [none] (0x0000) Your-IP 10.48.96.52 Client-Ethernet-Address 10:9c:70:22:24:be (oui Unknown) Vendor-rfc1048 Extensions Magic Cookie 0x63825363 DHCP-Message (53), length 1: Offer Server-ID (54), length 4: snow.tylerent.com Lease-Time (51), length 4: 3600 Subnet-Mask (1), length 4: 255.255.255.0 Default-Gateway (3), length 4: snow.tylerent.com BR (28), length 4: 10.48.96.255 Domain-Name-Server (6), length 4: snow.tylerent.com 19:58:11.378499 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 255, id 4, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 336) 0.0.0.0.bootpc > 255.255.255.255.bootps: [udp sum ok] BOOTP/DHCP, Request from 10:9c:70:22:24:be (oui Unknown), length 308, xid 0x21625adf, Flags [none] (0x0000) Client-Ethernet-Address 10:9c:70:22:24:be (oui Unknown) Vendor-rfc1048 Extensions Magic Cookie 0x63825363 DHCP-Message (53), length 1: Discover MSZ (57), length 2: 1500 Parameter-Request (55), length 4: Subnet-Mask (1), Default-Gateway (3), BR (28), Domain-Name-Server (6) 19:58:11.391610 IP (tos 0x10, ttl 128, id 0, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 328) snow.tylerent.com.bootps > 10.48.96.52.bootpc: [udp sum ok] BOOTP/DHCP, Reply, length 300, xid 0x21625adf, Flags [none] (0x0000) Your-IP 10.48.96.52 Client-Ethernet-Address 10:9c:70:22:24:be (oui Unknown) Vendor-rfc1048 Extensions Magic Cookie 0x63825363 DHCP-Message (53), length 1: Offer Server-ID (54), length 4: snow.tylerent.com Lease-Time (51), length 4: 3600 Subnet-Mask (1), length 4: 255.255.255.0 Default-Gateway (3), length 4: snow.tylerent.com BR (28), length 4: 10.48.96.255 Domain-Name-Server (6), length 4: snow.tylerent.com
How to reproduce
1) Configure DHCP on printer (default) 2) Power on printer, plug in Ethernet cable, observe lights on connector are flashing 3) No IP address is assigned
Expected behavior
I would expect the printer to accept the DHCPOFFER and begin using the assigned IP address.
