Add the parameter "67" or you'll forward many types of UDP broadcasts, not just BootP (DHCP) broadcasts which go to UDP port 67. > ! > interface ethernet 1 This should be the interface where the UDP DHCP broadcasts are coming into, in other words, usually the LAN where the clients reside. > ip helper-address 110.44.23.7 The parameter should be the address of the DHCP server or the network where the server resides. If you use network, the router will forward the packet as a broadcast. If you use the actual address, the router will forward the packet as a unicast packet. > interface ethernet 2 This could be another LAN where clients reside? > ip helper-address 191.24.1.19 > > _______________________________ Priscilla Oppenheimer www.troubleshootingnetworks.com www.priscilla.com Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=54745&t=54725 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
