Network Binding and DHCP Logs: Seeking Solutions

Hey everyone, I’ve been diving into the world of network bindings and have encountered an interesting issue that I’m hoping the community can help me resolve. I installed the network binding and set up a ping device that contacts google.de every two minutes. Initially, everything seemed to be working smoothly, but I noticed something peculiar in my log file. Every six minutes, there’s a message indicating that the DHCP request packet listener is online. This has started spamming my logs, and I’m curious about the cause and possible fixes.

Here’s what I’ve observed:

  • The messages began appearing after I installed the network binding.
  • They occur every six minutes, which is exactly three times the interval of my ping device.
  • The log entries look like this:

2023-12-30 14:44:12.284 [INFO ] [ternal.dhcp.DHCPPacketListenerServer] - DHCP request packet listener online

What I’ve tried so far:

  • I’ve reviewed the network binding documentation to see if there’s a known issue or configuration option that could suppress these messages.
  • I’ve considered adjusting the ping interval, but that might not address the root cause.
  • I’ve also thought about disabling the DHCP listener, but I’m not sure how that would affect other functionalities.

My Questions:- Does anyone know why the DHCP listener is triggered by the network binding?

  • Is there a way to disable these log messages without impacting the binding’s functionality?
  • Have others encountered similar behavior, and if so, how did you resolve it?

I’m really looking forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences. Let’s see if we can crack this together! :slight_smile:
