UDP Helper with No Configured Broadcast Addresses
If the incoming packet has a broadcast destination IP address, then the unaltered packet is routed to all
Layer 3 interfaces.
If the Incoming packet has a destination IP address that matches the subnet broadcast address of any
interface, then the unaltered packet is routed to the matching interfaces.
Troubleshooting UDP Helper
Display debugging information using the command debug ip udp-helper, as shown in Figure 22-17.
Figure 22-17. Debugging UDP Broadcast
Use the command debug ip dhcp when using the IP helper and UDP helper on the same interface, as shown
in Figure 22-18.
