Inserting subscriber id in to DHCP Discover when using EFPs on a Cisco 3600x

We are trying to insert the subscriber-id option in to the DHCP DISCOVER packet using the configuration under an EFP as per below. In this example the DHCP server does not receive the DHCP subscriber-id option that has been configured.

ip dhcp relay information option
ip dhcp relay information policy encapsulate
ip dhcp relay information trust-all

interface Vlan50 ip dhcp relay information trusted ip address 192.168.130.1 255.255.255.0 ip helper-address 10.1.1.5 interface GigabitEthernet0/2  switchport trunk allowed vlan none
switchport mode trunk
ip dhcp relay information option-insert
service instance 101 ethernet encapsulation dot1q 18 rewrite ingress tag pop 1 symmetric ip dhcp relay information option subscriber-id EXAMPLE
bridge-domain 50

If I move the subscriber id configuration under the vlan as per below it works perfectly and the DHCP server receives the subscriber id sub-option within option 82 of the DHCP Discover packet. 

ip dhcp relay information option
ip dhcp relay information policy encapsulate
ip dhcp relay information trust-all

interface Vlan50
 ip dhcp relay information trusted
 ip address 192.168.130.1 255.255.255.0
 ip helper-address 10.1.1.5
 ip dhcp relay information option subscriber-id EXAMPLE
interface GigabitEthernet0/2  switchport trunk allowed vlan none
switchport mode trunk
ip dhcp relay information option-insert service instance 101 ethernet encapsulation dot1q 18 rewrite ingress tag pop 1 symmetric bridge-domain 50

Can anyone provide any working examples for the use case of configuring "ip dhcp relay information option subscriber-id" within the efp, or point to the relevant documentation?

 

Firmware version is 15.5(3)S8

I am thinking this was due that interface in bridge mode "bridge-domain 50"

 

Do you have BVI Interface ? where you can configure

On this series of cisco switch when you add the bridge-domain command under an EFP it will automatically create and link the SVI if it doesn’t exist, so in this case we are not using a BVI.

 

L2 and L3 forwarding is fully working using the SVI.
