Netboot issues across multiple subnets

Hi all,

We are having issues configuring our netboot setup.

We have the helper addresses in place and two subnets are working, but the netboot is not showing up on another range that is very close to the two that are working.

We use dhcp options for other devices, could they be conflicting with the netboot?
I have my network team reviewing this discussion for setup

Our server is running:
10.11.6 (build 15g1108)
ServerOS 5.2 (build 16S1195)

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks!

I had to work with our telecom people and use something called IP helper to broadcast the netboot network past one subnet. We limit it to specific network segments for security reason. We use DHCP as well, and it shouldn't be a problem.
