asterisk users - Aug 2005 - Cisco 7920 boot causes 7940 to release DHCP lease

I have been trying to solve a problem wherby when I boot a cisco 7920 my
7940 seeks a new IP and the dhcpd log shows it released its existing IP.  In
searching for the solution I notice there were 2 messages on this list in
Aug & Sep 2004 which raised the problem, but I could not find any answer was
posted.

Has anyone solved this please?

Thanks,

Mark.

I've noticed the same issue. Haven't tried it with 79[46]0's 7.5
firmware.

A workaround would be to give a static addres to your 7920.

Let me know if you find a solution.
