Error (C) reply code is returned if the data supplied in the command is invalid. Rejected (R) reply code is returned if:

 

•Command is issued while the IP-address of the DS is not properly configured (DHCP (DH) setting is 1 (enabled) and the DS hasn't yet obtained the IP-address from the DHCP server).
