Is there a way to restart DHCP on a 300c running fortiOS 5 without rebooting the entire firewall? Ours seems to have stopped handing out addresses. We have a pool 0f about 160 IPs that the fortigate hands out to IP phones (don' t ask). So far about 130 have been handed out, but new phones are not getting addresses.

    You can issue the following; diag sys kill <kill#> <pid> PID = process ID But I would suggest execution of the following; set status disable for the dhcp-server instance for the phone network and the follow up with a set status enable SOCBLOGFWF60D # config sys dhcp server SOCBLOGFWF60D (server) # edit 11 SOCBLOGFWF60D (11) # set status dis end See if that works 1st
