Hi, Naveen

May I know the GIT version of the 21543, or the subject of the commit message? 
I can't see the svn revision number on my side.

Thanks
Siyuan

> Hello,

>           We happened to observe that the IPv4 PXE boot was happening

> subnet range is 192.168.1.0/16. The DHCP server tries to allot an IP
> (let's say 192.168.1.0) but based on the first byte of the IP address to

> and its respective subnet mask as 255.255.255.0 that should be for a
> classful IP address whereas 255.255.0.0 is the actual subnet in this
> scenario. The changes present in function Dhcp4InstanceConfigUdpIo() seems
