Question: Should a server on subnet "A" that is servicing another subnet "B" NAK invalid requests on subnet "A"? We have a subnet 192 on which there are two DHCP servers. One services the 192 subnet and the other another external subnet 12. The second server, which has no definition of the 192 subnet in its tables, issues NAKs whenever it detected an improper address for the 192 subnet. This seems to conform to the RFC but I wanted to verify with the working group.
