Hi,
today i had to debug an ASR9001 setup with DHCP Relay and an
ipv4 verify unicast source reachable-via rx allow-self-ping on
an BVI interface. The clients failed to get leases - I saw
DISCOVERS on the server side and the server sent out
OFFERS. I could not determine whether the OFFER fails
to reach the client or the REQUEST would not reach the server.

        [ ... ]

        dhcp ipv4
         profile relayprofile relay
          helper-address vrf default 10.7.8.9
          giaddr policy replace
         !
         interface BVI108 relay profile relayprofile
         interface BVI60004 relay profile relayprofile

        [ ... ]

        interface BVI60004
         ipv4 address 10.4.5.1 255.255.255.0
         ipv4 verify unicast source reachable-via rx allow-self-ping

Removing the ipv4 verify unicast ... solved the issue which
left me a little puzzled. My google foo turned up nothing
concerning incompatibilities ...

From my understanding the verify unicast is a pure input packet
validation. The whole DHCP handshake would not create packets
stemming from an invalid IP address on the L2 Bridge e.g.
the BVI interface so i have no clue where and why the packet
would be dropped.
