Usage guidelines
This command enables the DHCP server to ignore the broadcast flag in DHCP requests and
broadcast all responses.
The DHCP server always unicasts a response in the following situations, regardless of whether this
command is executed:
• The DHCP request is from a DHCP client that has an IP address (the ciaddr field is not 0).
• The DHCP request is forwarded by a DHCP relay agent from a DHCP client (the giaddr field is
not 0).
