Add the parameter "67" or you'll forward many types of UDP broadcasts, not
just BootP (DHCP) broadcasts which go to UDP port 67.

This should be the interface where the UDP DHCP broadcasts are coming into,
in other words, usually the LAN where the clients reside.

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.

This could be another LAN where clients reside?
