That explains that.

What about the observed symptoms?  Have you performed an inline packet
capture or capture of a packet mirror?  Looks like I should try to
improve the instructions at
http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/Debugging#PXE-Capture-Mirror to
provide examples for Cisco and HP and an inline example with Linux
bridging.

Reading back, you stated "Strange thing is that the struct shows
0xc78cef71 for StationAddress and 0xc78cef75 for subnetmask when
usedefaultaddress is set to true.  Since my subnet is 10.39.31.xx, I
am completely baffled as to how the default values were set but I will
figure it out. I just need to do some additional digging."  Did you
obtain this based on extra Print() statements?  They look to be
adjacent memory addresses and not the contents of those addresses.

Have you tested this with accessing both subnet-local and
subnet-remote servers (ie, TFTP servers)?
