Bug #7018
closed
DHCP packets replicated on non-DHCP relay interface
0%
Description
When enabling DHCP relay for the following networks:
LAN: 192.168.2.0
PUBLIC: 192.168.4.0
But not on:
Server: 192.168.1.0
I am seeing double the amount of DORA packets on the server network (when DHCP relay is disabled on that interface)
This is what I am seeing on the Server network (packet capture from the pfsense Server interface: http://i.imgur.com/FrYdWyz.png
To ensure this is not caused by some loop in my network I "unplugged" he LAN and Public interface cable, I am still seeing the same issue:

No idea what's the bug here (the requests are relayed from the configured interfaces to the network where's the configured DHCP server, which is what one would expect, otherwise things just would not work at all.)
As a side note, last time this thing was touched (#6355), it resulted in complete breakage (see #6658 and links in there). If you think you have a bug here, I would suggest you move this either to the upstream's top-secret bug tracker [1], or to their very much dead mailing list [2]
