DHCP Layer 2 Relay Commands

Dell Networking N2000/N3000/N4000 Series Switches
In the majority of network configurations, DHCP clients and their associated
servers do not reside on the same IP network or subnet. Therefore, some kind
of third-party agent is required to transfer DHCP messages between clients
and servers. Such an agent is known as a DHCP Relay agent.
The DHCP Relay agent accepts DHCP requests from any routed interface,
including VLANs. The agent relays requests from a subnet without a DHCP
server to a server or next-hop agent on another subnet. Unlike a router which
switches IP packets transparently, a DHCP Relay agent processes DHCP
messages and generates new DHCP messages as a result.
The Dell Networking DHCP Relay supports DHCP Relay Option 82 circuit-
id and remote-id for a VLAN.
