DHCP Relay

Configure DHCP Relay on this page. DHCP Relay is used to forward and to transfer DHCP messages between the clients and the
server when they are not on the same subnet domain.
The DHCP option 82 enables a DHCP relay agent to insert specific information into a DHCP request packets when forwarding client
DHCP packets to a DHCP server and remove the specific information from a DHCP reply packets when forwarding server DHCP
packets to a DHCP client. The DHCP server can use this information to implement IP address or other assignment policies.
Specifically the option works by setting two sub-options:
Circuit ID (option 1)
Remote ID (option2).
The Circuit ID sub-option is supposed to include information specific to which circuit the request came in on.
The Remote ID sub-option was designed to carry information relating to the remote host end of the circuit.
The definition of Circuit ID in the switch is 4 bytes in length and the format is "vlan_id" "module_id" "port_no". The parameter of
"vlan_id" is the first two bytes represent the VLAN ID. The parameter of "module_id" is the third byte for the module ID (in
standalone switch it always equal 0, in stackable switch it means switch ID). The parameter of "port_no" is the fourth byte and it
means the port number.
The Remote ID is 6 bytes in length, and the value is equal the DHCP relay agent's MAC address. The DHCP Relay Configuration
screen is shown Figure 4-2-11.
