Cisco EEM applet to monitor and repair broken DHCP leases
Dirty hack to renew DHCP lease on Cisco 881 if Internet access is lost. This can happen when Cisco has valid DHCP lease from ISP and then cable modem or DSL router is power cycled but switch between Cisco and upstream device keeps link-state up. Options are either to fix it manually (pull cable / change config / reboot Cisco) or hack something like below. I'm also pinging over VPN tunnel to Intranet as it would be shame to break this due Level 3 and Google blocking ICMP which might happen one day.
