Re: Getting Peer hold all free leases

Hi Abdul,
Check the communication is happening on port 647 on both the servers using
tcpdump -i any port 647
---> I can see the traffic between two servers on port 647

Please also check if there are multiple entries my state and partner state
-------> Yes I checked all the entries, I confirmed those are in
normal-normal by checking the latest timestamp entry of the last occurred
line.

Can you also check if the discovers from client is landing on both the
servers ?
----> yes the peer hold free leases is from both the server logs
