hey, thx for reply! the problem was myself, my firewall was blocking the 
incoming traffic for 255.255.255.255 *facepalm* i have also find a 
solution for interface binding, by the undocumented constant like this:

$address = 'udp://255.255.255.255:67';
$stream = stream_socket_server($address, $errno, $errstr, 
\STREAM_SERVER_BIND);
$socket = socket_import_stream($stream);
socket_set_option($socket, SOL_SOCKET, SO_BINDTODEVICE, 'eth2');

regards,
volker.
