see if this helps anyone in your networking dept:

[excerpt from rfc1533 @ http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/cgi-
bin/rfc/rfc1533.html]
(DHCP Protocol)
=======================
5.1 Interface MTU Option
This option specifies the MTU to use on this interface. The MTU is
specified as a
16-bit unsigned integer. The minimum legal value for the MTU is 68.

The code for this option is 26, and its length is 2.


Code Len MTU
+-----+-----+-----+-----+
| 26 | 2 | m1 | m2 |
+-----+-----+-----+-----+
=======================


[excerpt from comer, internetworking with tcp/ip]
=======================
MTU = Maximum Transfer Unit -- the maximum size a physical packet
can be in a given
network before it is fragmented.
=======================

i have no idea other than it MAY have something to do with
the packet size of a DHCP message possibly exceeding the MTU
of the network (or intermediate subnet).
-or-
the DHCP version (?) doesn't understand option 26 (it doesn't
follow RFC 1533).

hopefully that info might trigger a thought with a techie
somewhere...

...my answer is probably worse than the problem :-(

Hello Everyone,



I have a windows NT workstation connected to a Windows 2000 Server. I
am receiving the following error/warning on a workstation in their event
viewer.



"DHCP received an unknown option 026 of length 002. the raw option
data is given below."



My ip addresses are DHCP not static. I did a search on google for this
message and I did not see anything.

Has anyone else see this or know where I can find what is causing this.



Best Regards,
