Hello all....I have a problem.
Scenario:
- Have cisco 2600 series router with 2 ethernet interfaces.
- eth0/0 is on subnet 10.0.0.0
- eth0/1 is for subnet 10.2.0.0
- DHCP server on subnet 10.0.0.0 running 2 scopes for
subnets 10.0.0.0 and 10.2.0.0
- Can ping any IP address on either subnet.

Issue:
- Clients connected to subnet 10.2.0.0 cannot receive DHCP
settings.

I've heard of setting up ip address helper, but not familiar what it does, and which interface to set it up on? also, would I have to enable bootp forwarding on the router? Is that possible?

Any help would be great!!!!
Thanks
 
interface eth0/1
ip helper-address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
!xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address of your DHCP server.
