Hi,

Interesting error, never heard of this specific error before although the Event IDs have been around for a while.

There is known a registry modification to disable rogue DHCP server detection. This is sort of the nuclear option and I would have liked a more elegant solution, but this is what I’ve got.

NOTE: Be sure that this is what you want to do! In most cases, you do not want to do this. You frequently want to adjust your scopes, adjust your bindings, or use DHCP relays/IP helpers and rarely do you ever want to resort to turning off rogue DHCP detection.

1. Add a new registry value entry to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\DHCPServer\Parameters of type REG_DWORD named DisableRogueDetection with a value of 0x1
2. Restart the Windows DHCP server.

Kind regards,
Leon
