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 agents MAC
address.
DHCP Snooping
DHCP Snooping is used to block intruder on the untrusted ports of the switch device
when it tries to intervene by injecting a bogus DHCP reply packet to a legitimate
conversation between the DHCP client and server.
DNS
DNS is an acronym for Domain Name System. It stores and associates many types of
information with domain names. Most importantly, DNS translates human-friendly domain
names and computer hostnames into computer-friendly IP addresses. For example, the
domain name www.example.com might translate to 192.168.0.1.
DoS
DoS is an acronym for Denial of Service. In a denial-of-service (DoS) attack, an attacker
attempts to prevent legitimate users from accessing information or services. By targeting
at network sites or network connection, an attacker may be able to prevent network users
from accessing email, web sites, online accounts (banking, etc.), or other services that
rely on the affected computer.

Dotted Decimal Notation

Dotted Decimal Notation refers to a method of writing IP addresses using decimal
numbers and dots as separators between octets.
An IPv4 dotted decimal address has the form x.y.z.w, where x, y, z, and w are decimal
numbers between 0 and 255.
DSCP
DSCP is an acronym for Differentiated Services Code Point. It is a field in the header of
IP packets for packet classification purposes.
E
EEE
EEE is an abbreviation for Energy Efficient Ethernet defined in IEEE 802.3az.
EPS
EPS is an abbreviation for Ethernet Protection Switching defined in ITU/T G.8031.
Ethernet Type
Ethernet Type, or EtherType, is a field in the Ethernet MAC header, defined by the
Ethernet networking standard. It is used to indicate which protocol is being transported in
an Ethernet frame.
