Brocade Switch: DHCP and the 'ip helper-address' Command

Dont forget.  When you need to use a DHCP server that is NOT on the same VLAN as your DHCP clients, you have to use the helper-address command.  See below.  Here is a config from one of my customers that is using two different DHCP servers (with two different ranges that are split in the subnet, for redundancy).

The config on an ICX6610:
interface ve 21
 ip address 10.11.0.1 255.255.255.0
 ip helper-address 1 10.3.0.125
 ip helper-address 2 10.1.0.125
