Current info: 4.1 SP2 running on Sun Ultra 10, Solaris 2.6. My LAN folks are setting up a remote office which has a fiber link to the local building. There is a switch at each site. There is a firewall between the two network segments, located here at the local site. (The local switch is plugged into one of the ports on a quad card.) There is a DHCP server at the local site, and it needs to serve the PC's at the remote site. I can see bootp traffic being broadcast, but I don't see any return traffic from the local server. The rulebase allows for all traffic in both directions through this particular firewall for these two network segments. Based on my research thus far, I believe there needs to be a DHCP relay somewhere in this structure. I've found how to configure the firewall at the OS level to relay DHCP requests, although I haven't tried it yet. (I wanted to check with this list first.) Is that how I should proceed, or is there a 'better' way to accomplish this? Thanks for your help and/or opinions.
