Abstract
A computer-implemented method for ensuring consistency between redundant DHCP peers may include establishing, by a first relay agent over a TCP connection, a peer relationship with a second relay agent. The method may also include synchronizing, by the first relay agent, subscriber information with the second relay agent for a subscriber group. The method may then include periodically calculating, by the first relay agent, a checksum for all subscribers in the subscriber group. Additionally, the method may include exchanging, by the first relay agent, the checksum from the first relay agent with a second checksum from the second relay agent via periodic TCP keepalive messages. Furthermore, the method may include detecting, by the first relay agent, a mismatch between the checksums. Finally, the method may include resolving an inconsistency in subscriber information in response to detecting the checksum mismatch. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
