What ip helper you are talking about?

Ip helper adress is used in cisco ios for dhcp relay.
So if i’m right you’ll have to look at IP DHCP-Relay.

In Cisco you have an ip helper-address command which can be used to forward UDP broadcasts as unicast to an off subnet host. This command is commonly used to forward DHCP requests to a centralized DHCP server, but can be used for other purposes.

If you’re looking to forward DHCP you can use /ip dhcp-relay. Assuming your subnet is 192.0.2.0/24 you would use:

/ip dhcp-relay
add name=dhcp-relay interface=ether1 dhcp-server=<server_address> local-address=192.0.2.1

I’m not sure how you could forward other protocols if you’re looking to do that.
