      HI

      VOIP Phones, Cisco AP, and Access Control are not getting IP from DHCP server. Only LAPTOP and PC 's are getting IP. Kindly help me to fix that issues.

      Thanks in Advance.

        There is nothing in pfSense (or any other DHCP server) that would cause that.  Do you have VLANs configured for those phones and APs?  If so, you'd need to enable the DHCP server on the VLAN.

        PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
        i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel Gb Ethernet ports.
        UniFi AC-Lite access point

        I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...

          I have configured DHCP server on Pfsense and also i have enabled DHCP server on all the Vlans. Thanks!

          Primary DHCp Server:

          LAN Interface 192.168.0.4/24
          DHCP Server  192.168.0.21 to 192.168.0.254
          Configured failover Peer 192.168.0.5

          Secondary DHCP server :
          LAN INterface 192.168.0.5/24
          DHCP Server 192.168.0.21 to 192.168.0.254
          Failover Peer Ip 192.168.0.4

          CARP IP for this interface 192.168.0.8/24

          Replication Working fine.

          THis is MY configuration. DHCP leasing is working PC and LAptop. But IP Not leasing for VOIP Phones.

          I found logs in pfsense. Please find the below

            You haven't provided anywhere near enough information to even begin to help you.  We aren't dentists.  Don't make us pull the details like a bad tooth.  Details about your LAN config and DHCP config would be a start…
