I download the DHPLOC utility and when I run it nothing happens but
pressing any key will give me options D==> discover q==> quit h==> help
but on pressing d nothin happens and q works
I tried the same on one client pc which is on the same vlan as the dhcp
server and on pressing d shows OFFER(IP) client pc IP (S) DHCP server IP

you are right I guess i feel that the request is not being passed by the
switch i jus dig on more about dhcp snooping since when I checked the
(show ip dhcp snooping):

there is no option as snooping

probably I guess the IOS needs to be upgraded. i will check on that.
also if you could share some more ideas on troubleshooting this stuff i
would highly apprecite
