Hi All,
We have 1 hyperarc that seems to have a problem where it can not release IPs previously assigned properly. It sometimes does and sometimes doesn't ... eventually the arc runs out of IP addresses to assign and spews the following error:
Aug 15 09:02:12 9L102PDI-H1 At 13:01:46, Facility "IP", Level "CRITICAL":: ip_fwd_get_opt: no IP address available for dynamic address assignment
As you can see, the IP addresses (162 of them) are completely used up and there are only 7 users online. We don't think this is a code specific issue as we run this code on all ARCs (about 250 of them) and this is the only one getting these errors ... it may be hardware related, but in my experience these types of issues are generally code ... so, I'm at a cross-roads so to speak. Has anyone else run into this and found a workaround?
BTW: we can find only 2 ways to correct the issue, rebooting or removing the IP Pools and adding them back ... we generally reboot as that is much quicker and less error prone.

There are two reason basically why IP's do not return back to the pool. 1. The arc hints an IP to radius and radius does not support hint assigned feature - so one IP is lost in and is never returned back. 2. When the user disconnects, another user connects - the arc forgets to release the old user's IP. Clearly since you have hint assigned disabled so its not the issue. The second case here is a bug and you would need to upgrade the arc code to a code where this bug has been fixed. The other alternative is to use radius to assign IP address and not to depend on arc to do this. -V ----- Original Message ----- From: "MacDonald, James" <James.MacDonald@attcanada.com> To: <usr-tc@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Friday, August 16, 2002 6:00 AM Subject: RE: [USR-TC] ARC not releasing IP addresses

Do you have 'hint assigned' enabled?
