[c-nsp] WLC with DHCP relay not working on in VRF

[Nasir Shaikh]

Sorry, I removed the guest lan from the VRF and then typed in the config in
the post. The vrf name is/was correct (VRF_Guest) and was the only vrf on
the router.
I will check out the "ip dhcp vrf connected" thread but I think that the
problem could be solved by adding "ip dhcp relay information trusted" under
the Guest Vlan config. Will try and post the results.

Kind regards

Nasir

Hi,

Maybe a    
"(no) ip dhcp vrf connected" problem ?
see https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/631964#631964

vrf in debug output is VRF_Guest and does not find an address-pool
so you should define one...; 
but your config-example's vrf is named Guests
