Again, knowing that I know nothing about phone servers (and we don' t manage or have anything to do with it other than it' s a VM on our hardware), when I do DHCP relay, those phones will have to get 10.10.20.x addresses from the phone server in order for voice traffic to route back to Office A' s Adtran/T1, correct? If that' s the case, from a theoretical position, how does the DHCP server know that local subnetted voice VLAN phones get 10.10.10.x addresses and DHCP relayed phones on Office B' s voice VLAN get 10.10.20.x addresses?This would be determine by the relay-dhcp-server ip address of office B router nic ( the firewall ip_address) aka properly as the GIADDR in the dhcp-message e.g config sys interface edit vlan2 set ip 10.10.20.1/24 set dhcp-relay-service enable set dhcp-relay-type regular set dhcp-relay-ip 10.10.10.200 192.168.100.200 192.168.200.200 â†-- this is the dhcp-server (s) end So the DHCP relay-agent ( firewall ) will present it’s address to the DHCP-server & the scope would be correctly served based on the relay-agent address
Another few quick (hopefully) questions on the DHCP relay setup since I' ve not done that before and documentation isn' t exactly helpful on the particulars: 1. Do I relay through the System > Network > Interfaces > Wan1 > Office_B_to_A tunnel (sub)interface?On firewall B you would have a dhcp-relay mode set for this firewall ( see the above cfg )
2. What is the difference between Regular and IPsec relaying (this is where documentation fails)?fortigate supports various dhcp-server types depending on FortiOS ver 1: regular ( what we use for a typical LAN ) 2: ipsec ( clients that used ipsec-dhcp for configuration vrs auto-configuration request & the client sends a classic dhcpdiscover message ) 3: relay ( where your dhcp-server is external & the address/assignment/binding is done off the local L3 device and remotely managed ) FWIW: Also I know you have the phone-server DHCP-server, but you could manage the scope on any of the other 2 dhcp-server if you wanted ( Office A or B ). So if you see in my earlier example, I gave you 3 dhcp-servers all ending in .200. You would replace these with the appropriate dhcp-server that you configure the phone-dhcp-scope on. I myself have never relayed over a ipsec-vpn, but have relayed locally to external dhcp-server off the fortigate in the past. Keep your design simple & let us know how it works out. If you need diagnostics, you can tcpdump on either the tunnel-interface leading to OfficeA or OfficeA interface leading to the dhcp-server to ensue the dhcp-relay is working and what address or you can run ; e.g diag sniffer packet <my interface> " host 10.10.10.200“ or diag debug enable diag debug application dhcprelay 250 on officeB I hope this all helps
