RE: [FW1] Bootp (Probably been asked before)



If the request is coming from a remote subnet it will probably not be a
broadcast. Both DCHP relay agents and Router IP-Helpers will usually change
the broadcast for a unicast directed at a dhcp server. You can configure the
IP helper to get passed to a broadcast address but it is more likely that
the request is coming from on-segment. I would do as below, look at the
request on an analyzer and find ot the manufacturer and go looking at
machines!

Hope it helps

Only if you are forwarding in dhcp requests from remote networks.  Have you
run a
sniffer trace?  This will give you the mac address so you can check the
manufacturer
through http://coffer.com/mac_find/ , or http://www.shmoo.com/tools/mac/ ,
or the
IEEE doc at  http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/oui/oui.txt
