DHCP server created on switch can't bind IP address

Hi,

I have an ICX6610 that I wanted to test some subnets on an SRX 240 firewall. On my SRX I have an interface that's configured as a DHCP client. If I connect a cord between that port and another switch that has DHCP from an SSG firewall, I get an IP bound.

But if I connect it to a port on the 6610 I get the offer but there is no binding on the SRX. The 6610 though sees it as bound. After around a minute or so the SRX port returns to INIT state.

How can I investigate DHCP issues on the 6610?

Here's my config:
vlan 20 by port
untagged ethe 1/1/2
router-interface ve 20
!

ip dhcp-server enable
!
ip dhcp-server pool dhcp20
dhcp-default-router 192.168.20.254
excluded-address 192.168.20.100 192.168.20.254
lease 1 0 0
network 192.168.20.0 255.255.255.0
deploy
!

interface ve 20
ip address 192.168.20.254 255.255.255.0
!
SSH@ICX6610-48P Router#show ip dhcp-server binding
Bindings from all pools:
IP Address Client-ID/ Lease expiration Type
Hardware address

192.168.20.1 288a.1c40.e8cd 000d:23h:59m:37s Automatic
I have no VLANs configured on the SSG/SRX port. I thought I could define a VLAN and untag the port on the ICX and it should work. The port works with a notebook running Windows. Is there anything more I must add to the configuration?


Thanks!
