Description
Specify the DNS or TFTP server for forwarding DNS or TFTP requests, or specify a destination server address for forwarding LAN broadcast packets as unicast traffic for a custom-configured UDP port.
When configuring port helpers, in releases prior to Junos OS Release 17.2, only one server can be specified for a given port. For Junos OS Release 17.2 and later, multiple servers can be specified for a given port at the global or interface-specific level. When multiple servers are specified, the same packet, with the originator IP address and port requests, is forwarded to the different configured servers; the payload of the UDP packet is not modified.
