[Bug 1551351] Re: dhclient does not renew leases

[Petr Suchý]

I am affected with this bug too. First renew of IP is failing, after reconnect everything is ok until next reboot. Shutdown is often suspended for some time (always when shutdown is soon after start or reboot).
Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
isc-dhclient-4.3.3

  dhclient does not renew leases

Bug description:
  Release: Xenial

  I think this only recently started after some bind9 updates triggered a rebuild. When booting dhclient gets started and acquires an IP address, but it does seem to lock up somewhere as it does not renew the lease.
  In my environment I set the lease time to 5 minutes, so I notice such things rather soon. I looked on the dhcp server side but saw any further dhcp messages come in from the client side.
