Hi everyone,

so, I have resolved my problem with my cisco WLAN controller 4400 and his famous dhcp relay.

In order to my cisco understand where chilli is, I had a command in the chilli crontab which is executed every minutes.

In fact, Instead of my cisco controller ask me who chilli is, Chilli ask him before who cisco is.

the command is: arping -b -c 2 -I eth1 -s 192.168.172.1(chilli) 192.168.172.2(cisco)

then, cisco controller had chilli mac adress and ip in his arp table. then, he answers chilli who he is.

When it is done, cisco transmit dhcp requests.

So, I hope that the problem will be resolve in the future chilli 1.0.14, but now we have a solution.
