DHCP Fwd-Path to Broadcast IP not working but unicast does

DHCP Fwd-Path to Broadcast IP not working but unicast does

Hello,

Moved the VLAN IP to a new Fabric Engine with 8.5.2 and DHCP Fwd-Path to a Broadcast IP does not work, it works fine on a VSP 4850 with  6.1.3.0. If change the address to the unicast IP of a DHCP Server in the Server subnet (which is on another BEB) then DHCP works.

What could the issue be here please?

Thanks,

Rob

I also noticed ip directed-broadcast is no longer available in later VOSS software under VLAN interface. So, how can a BEB send a subnet broadcast across Fabric to another BEB from one subnet ie DHCP Relay agent 10.10.10.1 to DHCP Server subnet using 20.20.20.255 when the subnets are on different nodes?
