      When I go to DHCP Relay I see this:
      DHCP Server is currently enabled. Cannot enable the DHCP Relay service while the DHCP Server is enabled on any interface.

      However DHCP is not enabled on either LAN or WAN tabs. I enabled and then redisabled LAN to see if that would resolve it and it did not. Status services does NOT show DHCPD at all.

      Help.

      2.0.1 Full

        Did you ever have OPT1 assigned/enabled with DHCP? I think there was a bug found recently where disabled interfaces were still checked.

          Why yes at one time we used our OPT1 port and we had DHCP. It is disabled now and has been for some time. Is there a workaround?

            Not a simple one really. Easiest would be to backup your config.xml, edit out the old dhcpd config for opt1, then restore it.
