Package: dhcp3-client
Version: 3.0.5-1
Severity: important
Hi,
The "request" usage in new /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf went from:
request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers,
domain-name, domain-name-servers, host-name,
netbios-name-servers, netbios-scope, interface-mtu;
to
# request nothing: let the server send all the parameters it knows
request;
In theory this sounds good, because it would not restrict the amount of
information that the DHCP server sends to its clients, as per #398378.
After upgarding to version 3.0.5-1, dhclient still obtains an ip lease
from the server but some critical information is obviously not being
given voluntarily by the DHCP server, preventing any meaningful traffic.
Looks like the client no longer knows what its default gateway should be.
