BMR from secondary NIC

I'm a BMR newby and need some help.

 

I'm trying to troubleshoot why a BMR is not working.  The master server(Sun v880,Sol10) is dual nic'd and the system I'm trying to restore is on a network off the secondary NIC (although it was archived from the primary NIC). 

 

My backup person says that everything is ready (SRT created, BMR started) and I can see entries in /etc/bootparams and files in /tftpboot, but nothing happens when I run 'boot net' on the client system.

 

The client system is entered in /etc/hosts and it's MAC address is in /etc/ethers.

 

I'm stumped!  Any ideas are greatly appreciated in advance.

Yes, The master server sees the bootp broadcasts when I run "boot net" from the "ok" prompt on the client.  I ran "snoop" on the master server to check this.
