DHCP/BOOTP Relay
The DHCP/BOOTP Relay folder contains two windows: DHCP/BOOTP Relay Global Settings and DHCP/BOOTP Relay
Interface Settings.

DHCP/BOOTP Relay Global Settings

Users can enable and configure DHCP/BOOTP Relay Global Settings. The relay hops count limit allows the maximum number of
hops (routers) that the DHCP/BOOTP messages can be relayed through to be set. If a packet's hop count is more than the hop
count limit, the packet is dropped. The range is between 1 and 16 hops, with a default value of 4. The relay time threshold sets the
minimum time (in seconds) that the Switch will wait before forwarding a BOOTREQUEST packet. If the value in the seconds
field of the packet is less than the relay time threshold, the packet will be dropped. The range is between 0 and 65,535 seconds,
with a default value of 0 seconds.
