SYMPTOMS
After you install Windows NT Server 4.0 Service Pack 3 on a Windows NT-based computer that has the Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) service installed, TCP/IP addresses in one or more DHCP scopes may be displayed as "BAD". Entire scopes may be displayed this way when an internetworking device (such as a router), is not functioning properly, or the DHCP service receives an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) packet coded with the destination unreachable flag.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Windows NT 4.0. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
