Problem: when a client request an IP, both routers relay the request to the DHCP server, but on the DHCPserverLAN, only the request from the 1st router is received. Both routers have a correct route to that server, and no firewalls are in between.
I notice the following however:
- the original DHCP discovery request from the client is a broadcast with soruceport 68 to destport 67 - seems normal.
- router 1 sends to the DHCPserver using sourceport 67 to destport 67
- router 2 sends to the DHCPserver using sourceport 68 to destport 67
So both routers have a different behaviour - anybody know why?
And why doens't the 2nd DHCP disc relay request doens't get through to the DHCPserver?
thanks!!!!

are u able to ping DHCP server 192.168.205.30 from 2nd router using source IP 10.32.214.164 ?

yes, that is no problem.
I find it strange that both routers use a different sourceport (67 vs. 68) to relay the discovery packet.
I don't know if this is the source of my problem though.
