Hello,

I would need an expert opinion. Could someone tell me what this message in the anomaly log of my BBOX means?

"Another DHCP server (a4:ba:db:9e:08:00) other than the Bbox is present on the network. Unexpected behaviors from this DHCP server conflict may occur and prevent the proper functioning of devices connected to the Bbox."

Thank you in advance
Best regards

Configuration: iPhone / Safari 12.1.2

Hello,
the answer is probably in the question:
Do you have another DHCP server or not?
Be careful with servers in VM when they are in bridge mode, it's quite typical of this issue.

and ... There you go!

Thank you for your response, but it doesn't
help me. What does DHCP mean? And what is VM mode in bridged mode? Can you explain it to me without too many technical words? Thank you very much. Best regards.

Do you have another server on your network, whether it's on a virtual machine or not?
A4:BA:DB corresponds to a Dell network card
Is your PC a Dell?
A4:BA:DB Dell Inc.
Otherwise,
The DHCP protocol is the system that allows your router to automatically assign IP addresses to connected devices.
