Running wireshark on the client (192.168.6.2), Opening up the game server
browser and viewing the game info for a server on 192.168.3.104 works
perfectly, it goes straight to the IP with the Port as the default, using
the lan tab it does in fact hit only the clients VLAN broadcast.

I'm going to work on managing the ip helpers on the SG-500 and will report
back if I can succeed in this. Thanks for the pointers Saint K.
