Interface-level "dhcp relay destination" command issues

[telecom116]

I have determined the interface-level "dhcp relay destination dhcp-svr " command does not forward packets from a VLAN subinterface.  This is on a Netvanta 3450 router running R10.3.0.

The commands I used that are not forwarding DHCP requests:

interface eth 0/2

  encapsulation 802.1q

  no shutdown

!

interface eth 0/2.2

  vlan-id 1235

  ip address  172.30.21.1  255.255.255.0

  ip dhcp relay destination 172.16.21.252

  no shutdown

!

Working commands I found from the Configuring UDP Relay document:

ip forward-protocol udp bootps

interface eth 0/2

  encapsulation 802.1q

  no shutdown

!

interface eth 0/2.2

  vlan-id 1235

  ip address  172.30.21.1  255.255.255.0

  ip helper-address  172.16.21.252

  no shutdown

Is this a software bug?

Thank you for asking this question in the support community.  I tested this on a newer AOS and it appeared to work properly.  Have you had a chance to try this on a newer version of firmware (R10.3.2 or R10.5.0)?

Please, let me know the results when you get a chance to upgrade firmware and test again.

I will attempt to test in a maintenance window in the next week or so.
