DHCP Server Configuration
===============================================
ip dhcp excluded-address 172.16.1.1 172.16.1.50
ip dhcp excluded-address 172.16.3.200 172.16.3.254

================================================
DHCP Pool for VLAN 1
================================================
ip dhcp pool Subnet-1610
network 172.16.1.0 255.255.255.0
dns-server 172.16.2.14
default-router 172.16.1.1
domain-name subnetone.com
lease 0 20 30

================================================
DHCP Pool for VLAN 2
================================================
ip dhcp pool Subnet-1630
network 172.16.3.0 255.255.255.128
dns-server 172.16.2.14

================================================
Router 1 – Relay Agent Configuration
================================================

Relay Agent
interface FastEthernet0/1
description “Downlink to Edge Network”
ip address 172.16.1.1 255.255.255.0
ip helper-address 172.16.2.14

===============================================================
Configured Subinterface Gateway for VLAN 2 Subnet 172.16.3.0/24
===============================================================
interface FastEthernet0/1.1
encapsulation dot1Q 2
ip address 172.16.3.254 255.255.255.0
ip helper-address 172.16.2.14

==============================================================
Layer 2 Access Switch Configuration
==============================================================

Trunk Interface
interface FastEthernet1/0
switchport mode trunk

VLAN 1 Member Interface
interface FastEthernet1/1
switchport access vlan 1

VLAN 2 Member Interface – Mr Banks PC2
interface FastEthernet1/2
switchport access vlan 2

===============================================================
Troubleshooting Steps
===============================================================

Check Connectivity States on the Physical Layer
Check Interface State -PC2 Interface up?
Show IP Configuration and VLAN States–
Check DHCP Server Connectivity
Check Gateway Interface Up State

=========================================
Compare with Working System
=========================================
Check if PC1 can get an IP Address

=========================================
Connect another PC to VLAN 2
=========================================
Swap PC2 for another PC to see if it works.

How did I fix the dhcp misconfiguration which made PC2 unable to get an IP Address?
