Great....
thanks a lot...

Yes you're right, I placed the ip directed-broadcast command towards the
tftp server and I could see the broadcast forwarded. IP forward-protocol too
worked fine.

> Hi, try enabling directed broadcast forwarding using interface command "ip
directed-broadcast", from IOS version 12.0 this forwarding of broadcast to
directly attached networks is disabled. This command only need to be
configured on the outgoing interface (the one connected to the tftp server)
of the last hop router.
> This will enable you to get the packet with destination 172.16.2.255
through to the tftp server. The destination address of this packet arriving
at the tftp server will be 255.255.255.255. This is because the last hop
router will translate the directed broadcast into a "limited" broadcast aka
all ones broadcast.
