DHCP relay

Hi

I noticed something, that to me seems unusual

I setup in one subnet a DHCP server on an RB device
in another, interconnected, subnet I setup a DHCP relay on second RB device

All works well when I indicate the address of the DHCP relay
in the DHCP server's configuration settings

If I remove the address of the DHCP relay from the DHCP server's
configuration settings, then the relaying doesn't work anymore

Surely one should be able to relay DHCP broadcasts, regardless
of whether the DHCP server is aware of it or not, no ?

thanks

yann

If you are relaying from another subnet NO. You need to make the server aware.
