HP Procurve DHCP Snooping server 0.0.0.0

Hi, we are getting quite a few syslog messages along the lines of

"00850 dhcp-snoop: backplane: Server 0.0.0.0 packet received on untrusted port 41 dropped"

 

While I believe that it is part of the DHCPDISCOVER packet to assign 0.0.0.0 as the source (and 255.255.255.255 as dest) this should be as a client and not as a server.

 

Can anyone offere any suggestions as to what is happening?
